question regarding nagios.cmd

[enediel gonzalez]

Thanks a lot for your answer
I found a set of entries on nagios.log like the following ones

[1128627994] service_result_worker_thread(): poll(): EINTR (impossible)
[1128633624] service_result_worker_thread(): poll(): EINTR (impossible)

How I should interact with nagios in a safe way to avoid this kind of 
problem, I need to put some processes on debian that will configure 
automatically the shedule downtimes.

If the answer is well explained somewhere, please just send me the 
references to find it.

Best regards
