Giving check_by_ssh a password

[Misao]

Hey, that did something. For some reason, the sysadmin that worked on this
box before had set both the .ssh and the Nagios home directory to 777
instead of 755. I'll have to remember that one, thanks.

Check the permissions of the key on the remote end. The users's home 
directory and .ssh directory must not be group or world writable, and the 
authorized_key file must also be user/world read-only.
