Nagios is likely to be complaining in nagios.log. What do you see there? Possible problems --
Nagios isn't checking external commands.
Nagios isn't accepting passive checks.
Your script isn't writing to the correct nagios.cmd.
Your script doesn't have permission to write to nagios.cmd.
The service definition isn't configured for passive checks.
The host name/service description being submitted don't match a known host/service combination.
