Thanks for suggesting this. In the meantime I have implemented a somewhat simpler solution: Create a Wiki page that contains a known unique string, request that page from within Nagios and check whether the unique string is present. I guess your method checks even more Trac functionality, but it's also harder to implement that check in Nagios (for me anyway, I'm sort of a Nagios newbie.) Maybe I will implement your solution if I have more time at hands, but for now my cheap-o solution must do.
