Status Info = Warning, but Status = Unknown

Hello,

I'm looking at the "Service Detail" section on the web
GUI. Most hosts/services are working fine, but a few
services seem confused. Their Status Information (7th
column) is "WARNING [details...]" or "OK [details...]"
but their Status (3rd column) is still listed as
"UNKNOWN".

Attempts to fix that did not:
Restarted Nagios mutliple times.
Removed host reference and re-added.
Waited a few hours for Nagios to settle down.

The problem *seems* to be more common when using Jeff
Scott's check_load_remote 1.1 or check_uptime_remote
1.1 in combination with the remote host running
Sun_SSH_1.0.1. Sometimes they will clear-up (display
statuseses that make sense) but usually they're in
status UNKNOWN even though the status information
shows WARNING or OK.

The same scripts used against hosts running
OpenSSH_4.1 are always fine.

Why is Nagios displaying conflicting information?
How do I force Nagios to 'forget' everything about a
host and start fresh?
Other tips?

Nagios 2.0b4
SunOS 5.9 Generic_112233-12 Sun-Fire-880

TIA for any help!
-John
