What's your max_check_attempts for the services? How many failures do
you need to get for the passive checks before alerts are generated? I
recently (this morning actually) setup passive checks for one of our
servers, and had no issues with configuring the freshness checks, but
I consider max_check_attempts of 1 to be considered failures on this
particular service/check.
