The Distributed Monitoring section of the documentation goes into  
pretty specific detail. On the central server, you essentially just  
need to make sure that passive checks are enabled program-wide and for  
the services you are submitting results for, that nagios is checking  
for external commands and that NSCA is configured to write to nagios'  
external command file. You must have a matching host{} and service{}  
definition for every passive result that you will be submitting.
