Also, does anyone know of a way I could do an http check via a proxy 
server?  My goal is to check our websites from the outside.  The way 
our network is laid out, the only way I can do that is via a proxy 
server.

I realize it sounds bad but the proxy does basically no caching.  I am 
currently doing this with Big Brother (which I am migrating away from 
due to the SO much nicer notification options provided by Nagios, BTW) 
and other than spurious alerts when the proxy servers go down it works 
fine.

thx,
