Does your nagios.log file contain any "External command error" messages?In order to have Nagios process external commands, make sure you do the following:
- Enable external command checking with the check_external_commands option.
- Specify the location of the command file with the command_file option.
- Setup proper permissions on the directory containing the external command file, as described in the quickstart guide.
