For me, the fix was renaming the init script to "nagiosd" instead of just 
"nagios". I was running a "nagios restart" at midnight every night because 
of similar problems (multiple host UP's, etc.) and the restart command 
seemed to die sometimes. Changing the name of the script stopped it. I 
assumed it was because any call to kill nagios might kill the script 
itself, but I never went back to check.

Of course, I may have changed something else entirely and this is all just 
coincidental, but since all my init scripts had a 'd' at the end of them 
except the one for nagios, I left the change in place.
