Is there an easy way to use nagios to check for the absence of a
service?

I want to have nagios monitor SMTP and a few other services on hosts
that aren't supposed to be running them, and tell me if they
suddenly get turned on.

Is there a plugin for this, or a way to trick an existing plugin to
make it work?  I suppose if nothing else I can write a wrapper for
check_smtp or check_tcp to swap the OK and CRITICAL return values,
but it'd be much easier if someone else has already done it...

Cheers,
Kyle
