Checking host up without ping

[Michael Johnston]

Hi list

I swear I've seen a way to do this this before but I just can't remember where and I can't seem to find it.  Isn't there a way to check to see if a host is up without having to ping it?  I have a switch that we don't allow ICMP return but I'd still like to have nagios tell me if it's up.  Thanks!
