Yes, it is.
I afraid the file is so big, nagios can rotate it anymore.
 
drwxr-s--x  3 nagios adm        4096 2011-03-14 16:39 .
drwxr-xr-x 17 root   root       4096 2011-03-14 16:50 ..
drwxr-s--x  2 nagios adm       32768 2010-11-09 13:50 archives
-rw-rw-r--  1 nagios adm  3845809989 2011-03-14 18:20 nagios.log

Thanks
