Is there more? A line number or command referenced along with the  
error? If so, look at that line number in the script and see what it's  
trying to do. It's usually not difficult to determine what and why if  
you take a look. An educated guess, assuming you really mean to say  
that you're testing the script as the nagios user (as you should), is  
that the nagios user does not have permissions to execute /usr/sbin/ 
sendmail.
