Don't worry about posting the full script. In this way, I will be able to 
learn by doing trial and error. Then if I really can't fix it anymore, I'd 
post my code. :) You've been very helpful to me and probably to other 
members here too that is following this thread. 

The other battle I am going on now is the send_nsca for win32 I installed on 
a box behind a firewall. I am confused on how that box will check for its 
own service. I opened send_nsca.cfg but it was very plain. And also, in 
active mode, nagios initiates the command going to NRPE_NT but in passive, 
NSCA daemon just waits and does the submit check results. 

I hope you can share some ideas about this scenario. 

Thanks.
