Host Down alert when Host is Up

[Fred]

Yes, you are correct, I misspoke (typed?), however, my point
remains that if the host-check returns a critical, nagios will
treat the node as down.  Whatever the command you are using ...

"down" is a state which is defined by the host-check, it doesn't
always mean the host is down, maybe its just not behaving as
expected.
