What i've done to check if my nagios setup is still working is, i configured a
HTTP check, to check a page somewhere on a server, it's a simple php page, you
can find it on the following url.
http://bugoff.be/wp-content/uploads/monitoringcheck.phps
then create a cronjob on the server where you put this file to check if the
file is updated.
*/5 * * * * cd /var/www/; /usr/bin/php -f monitoringcheck.php cron
