Service checks still not being executed

It stopped abruptly.  There was no resolution.  However, I have not been
able to reproduce the problem since then, and my configuration has been
under constant tweaking since then, so it could have been any number of
things.

No, they did not (most were already in place).  However the recommendations
involved changing how Nagios schedules its services.  The problem I observed
was that services didn't actually get executed when they were scheduled.

I'm afraid I don't have much to offer.  The group here is a good bunch,
though.  Hopefully someone else will be able to offer some assistance.  As a
workaround, try stopping the service, destroying your status and nagios log,
and restarting the process (forcing Nagios to reschedule everything).  That
_sometimes_ worked for me, when I had this problem. 

Some questions that might help people help you:

Do you have any service checks that have long scheduled intervals?
Do you note that most services get checked, while a handful don't ever get
checked?
Do those services have a scheduled check time that they exceed?
Do you sometimes leave the monitoring process offline for some time?
Does the problem start when you start up the process?
