Well, I figured out where my folly was. The send_nsca.cfg file was not
readable by the nagios user. Oops...

Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] Obsessing over Obsessing... -- ocsp_command is
running -- send_nsca is broken

Hello everyone,

I have some new information to add to this. I've setup my
submit_check_result script to append the output to a file rather than pipe
it to send_nsca. 

Example:

>> /usr/local/nagios/var/ocsp-test.log

instead of:

| /usr/local/nagios/bin/send_nsca etc...

After doing this, I can confirm that Nagios is obsessing over the service
checks as documented in the distributed monitoring docs. So, it appears that
the issue is specifically with send_nsca. I'm going to keep digging in on
it. One thing that I can tell you is if I run my submit_check_result script
(copied from the docs) from the command line, everything goes perfectly. But
if nagios runs it, it seems to be broken.

Thanks,
