Run check every 45 mins past the hour

How can I get nagios to run a check exactly 45 mins past the hour? I need this check to coincide with a cron job that is executed. My job is an audit job, so I must run the check when the cron job is expected to complete.

thanks for any ideas. We considered starting the time period at 00:00 and then just checking every 45 mins, but I don't know if that will work, or if things can get out of sync.

What I need is the ability to specify a schedule using wildcards but I can't find anything like that.

Probably the easiest and most accurate way to do this would be to schedule that check on a cron and submit the results as a passive check to Nagios:
