Ok.  Please put your reply below mine as it makes it easier to follow
the thread.
It may help if you give us more information about your config, per How to Ask
Questions the Smart Way
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#beprecise

Specifically:

Describe the symptoms of your problem or bug carefully and clearly.
(how does the command fail? is there an error message?)

Describe the environment in which it occurs (machine, OS, application,
whatever). Provide your vendor's distribution and release level (e.g.:
"Fedora Core 2", "Slackware 9.1", etc.).

Describe the research you did to try and understand the problem before
you asked the question.

Describe the diagnostic steps you took to try and pin down the problem
yourself before you asked the question.

I am a Nagios newbie myself and doing the above when I posted my
question helped make solving it fast and easy.

HTH,
