When I moved to the new version, these scripts no longer worked even though I confirmed that they were pointing to the right place.  I also tried to issue the command directly to the FIFO pipe file and that didn't seem to help either.  Has anyone else experienced this problem or is this specific to my setup?

Read the What's New section in the docs. It's entirely possible that the 
downtime command format has changed so that Nagios no longer understand 
your scripts.

Also, 2.04b went out a while ago, with some bugfixes here and there. You 
should consider upgrading often while Nagios is in beta testing.
