Chris,

Check this out:

v2.0
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/distributed.html

v1.2

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/distributed.html

(Note, I'm not sure whether the v2.0 docs are any different, just playing 
it safe.  I'm still on v1.2)

The gist of it is NSCA runs on the Central Nagios server and you use 
send_nsca to transmit data from Distributed Nagios over to Central.

Hope that helps.
