Is there a reason why you are running this ping check against localhost?

No reason.

can you suggest me a better scrippt for below line...


command[__HOST__]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H localhost -w 200.0,40% -c 400.0,80% -p 1

You should be able to configure a check that runs check_ping from the nagios server against the remote, no need for an agent . . .
Comment out the "__HOST__" command in the NRDS configuration.
Create a new service check to ping the remote host.

I'm guessing it is safe to close the thread now?
