Passive checks issue

I have 3 monitoring servers that submit passive checks to a main reporting server. Under tactical overview however, I have ~7000 active host/service checks and only ~1000 passive host/service checks. I am running nagios 3.4.1 and nsca 2.9 with OCSP.

How do I correct the behavior of passive checks going back to ~7000 or so, is there a setting that throttles the amount of passive checks being passed? I noticed the passive checks weren't passing as much when I upgraded nsca 2.7 to 2.9.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

There is an issue with the current nsca release in regards to nsclient (and maybe others). See the following forum post as it has a link to the nsca downgrade:
http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... sca#p34364

Additionally, make sure both the client and server binaries are the same version. You can check by running the following on both boxes:

root@localhost$ cd /usr/local/nagios/bin
root@localhost$ ./nsca -V
