We use syslog-ng at Nagios central server to write directly to nagios.cmd. Distributed Nagios servers use syslog-ng to send passive results to central nagios. Just use the logger utility to log, and filter relevant entries to be redirected to central nagios. On central nagios, there must be one log entry to write lines matching "PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT" to nagios.cmd pipe. Using NSCA and Syslog-NG on the central server did not worked because syslog-ng locks the command pipe for writing, thus nsca cannot write to the command pipe. But syslog-ng could have a destination to some script that writes to nagios.cmd pipe, if nsca keeps running at the central nagios server.
