Nagios is running multiple daemons

[Russell Scibetti]

Those processes aren't instances of Nagios.  They are all the plugins 
that the Nagios instance forks off.  That's why when you kill the main 
pid, they all die off.  

The more services you are checking (and assuming you are allowing 
concurrent, parallel checks), the more of these instances you will see.
