Monitoring nagios checks

More info, on this,
I'm trying to workout why HOST ALERTS are generated by a distributed
server but are not getting sent to the central server. Only when a HOST
DOWN event occurs does nsca send an update to the Central server; but
even then, the Central server runs it's own checks AGAIN on the host to
determine whether it's down or not.

I'd have though that if a local distributed server says a particular
host is DOWN, the Central server ought to be able to take that as gospel
and send a notification out immediately rather than doing it's own
checks too.

Ideas?

Ian
