May or may not be related... When testing new plugins and scripts, make sure
you're testing them as the "nagios" user the scripts will be running as when

I documented what I did for a previous employer awhile back here:
http://www.techadre.com/content/nagios-event-handler-restarting-service
Perhaps something in there may be useful.
