OK, a couple of things to look at: - nagios.cmd is supposed to always be 0 bytes. It's not a file but a socket. - How did you define the ocsp command? - When you execute the OCSP command manually what happens? Do you see anything in the central server's logs? Note: make sure to run as user "nagios" rather than root. - write a short script that simply echos its command line to the file /tmp/nicks_nsca_debug.log . Use this script as the OCSP command. Restart Nagios. Watch what happens with this file - it should tell you whether the distributed Nagios server even calls the OCSP command.
