send_nsca and nagios passive service problems

I'm a little confused on something:


When creating a service, all 'remote' services such as load, disk space and
such are passive services. Send_nsca sends the data to NSCA which then pipes
that info to Nagios.cmd. 

My problem is this, if the service is marked passive and freshness is set
(1). Nagios reports that the service is stale and will force a check again.
The problem is, it cannot check if it's a passive service.

How should I configure a passive service with NSCA <-> send_nsca use? 

Could someone provide a service sample on how this is done or provide
documentation on how this is done?

Shawn.
