hmmm, not sure... but it works for me. Maybe you need search domains
listed in your /etc/resolv.conf?

[net-mgmt]:[/usr/local/libexec/nagios]:>./check_ping -H proxy -w
3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 1
PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.63 ms

[net-mgmt]:[/usr/local/libexec/nagios]:>cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain dolaninformation.com
search dolaninformation.com dolanmedia.com banko.com
nameserver 10.1.1.28
nameserver 10.1.1.15

net-mgmt is running FreeBSD 4.7-Stable and Nagios 1.0.
