Nagios 2.0b6 doesn't create status.dat or schedule checks at startup

[Taco Mel]

Please help.
 
 I am running nagios 2.0b6 (released version and also tried the latest CVS) on Red Hat Enterprise 4, where the Nagios process appears to start but does not create the status.dat file, nor does it start executing checks.  This is after leaving it running for about 30 minutes, still nothing happens.  The last entry in nagios.log is "finished daemonizing" and then nothing happens.
 
 The vast majority of the checks in this setup are passive - this bug report concerns our master server which only does less than a hundred active checks, but handles all notifications.
 
 I have seen this problem alluded to on this list, but have not found a solution. Please help, as the client is not particularly happy about having their Nagios implementation be "down."
