mmm. Without more information, we're just going to be blindly  
guessing. Here's mine: You've configured check_dns to ask for the IP  
address of an IP address instead of a hostname and nslookup complained  
that didn't make any sense. check_dns does a lookup of names, not IP  
addresses.

If you can't figure it out and want something more specific, post the  
host, service and command definitions as well as the log entries  
related to the event. Is it happening all the time or just once? Was  
it working correctly at one point and broke? Did you change your  
nagios configuration to cause this to happen?
