Also try the following. It is possible a particular command that you have 
entered into nagios is hanging. Are you running any non-standard plugins?

# ps -aux | grep nagios

OK, I did that, but perhaps I'm missing something.

The default fields provided for the output of lsof are:
COMMAND     PID    USER   FD     TYPE       DEVICE   SIZE/OFF     NODE 
NAME

When I grep for "local/nagios" to filter out other things that may be 
running
as the nagios user, I get:
