With NSCA what check_command do you use?

[Chris Stankaitis]

in the doc's somewhere there is a small "check" for freshness 
checking... since all your NSCA checks are passive you'll want to 
disable ACTIVE checks for the services that are using NSCA this will 
stop the weird results... then you may want to enable freshness checking 
on the Passive services, and using the doc-provided freshness-check 
script switch your NSCA services' check command to the 'check-fresh' or 
whatever you choose to name it

Since NSCA works by receiving results via externals i really dont need a check_command on the nagios monitor but it wont let me not have one.  I setup libexec/check_dummy in it's place but that gives unaccurate results becasue nagios still runs that check_command and it's returning OK and overwriting the info it received via externals.
