It says "service timed out" which seems to mean it's either firewalled, or otherwise didn't respond (bad input, etc). Are you able to interact with that service from the nagios machine in some other way? I believe the -s and -e strings are normal "strings", not hex-encoded. You might use -s "`printf "\x02"`" -e "`printf "\x06"`" (that may need to be double escaped depending on context).
