I recently converted both of my Nagios systems to Nagios 2.0 and changed my configuration to use distributed monitoring. My remote system send status vis ncsa to my local system, and my local system monitors the remote hosts with passive checks.

All of this works fine, except for one host. This host is only monitored via the standard check-host-alive. The hosts bounces between "OK" and "CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds", but even when the status is listed as critical, the ping sometimes shows as OK.

None of the other passive checks exhibit this behavior, and if I look at the remote Nagios system (it still is running it's web interface for now) this host always listed as up and available.

Has anyone seen this kind of behavior before? Is so, what hoops do I need to jump through to resolve this?

 Thanks,
    Zeke
