Distributed nagios problem - service definition not found!

[TIM MOORE]

I just recently setup distributed nagios.  I followed the directions very closely.  I first had a problem running the nsca daemon through xinetd.  It just wouldn't listen for incoming on 5667.  I added the line to /etc/services also.  Here is my config:
 
service nsca
{
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = nagios
        group           = nagios
        server          = /usr/local/nagios/bin/nsca
        server_args     = -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nsca.cfg
        log_on_failure  += USERID
        disable         = no
        only_from       = 10.12.225.50
}

If I run it from command line in daemon mode it works fine.  
 
My main problem, is that when passive checks are sent to the central server I keep getting this error:

Oct  6 15:02:44 noc-mon nagios: Warning:  Message queue contained results for service 'Check Host Alive' on host 'acdmz-inside-sw2'.  The service could not be found!

The localhost check acts like it works, but the simple check-host-alive service definition is not.  I know that that service definition is on both servers.  They are both running v1.2.  Also, should I see something on my central server's web gui showing these hosts down?  My host count has not been affected at all by the hosts added to the distributed server.  Am I missing something?  Is there something wrong with the default check-host-alive service check?
 
Thanks for any help,
