Always run plugin tests as the nagios user. Tests as any other user are
not valid.

Look at your host definition. The 'address' is most likely incorrect or
unresolve-able by the nagios user. Check to make sure that you're
testing the plugin in exactly the same way that it's run by nagios. You
can see what nagios is running by echoing your plugin command to a tmp
file like below. If you can't figure it out, please post the complete
host, service and command definitions.
define somecommand {
...
command_line echo "$USER1$/check_ftp <other stuff here>" >>
/tmp/nagios-runs-me
}
