Unknown state flapping

[Aaron Macks]

hoping the description would have jogged a memory
nagios master:
Red Hat Linux release 8.0 (Psyche)
nagios 1.1
ssh used to check client, 3.4

plugin from nagios-plugins 1.4
check_disk
check_load
client OS Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)
ssh version 2.9.2

the other client with the same problem has the same stats
there are several other clients with the same stats that exhibit no problems

I've recopied all of the keys and plugins to the clients and 
rechecked the configs
the commands that cause the hosts to be checked:
hosts.cfg:
define host{
	use			generic-host
	host_name		stern
	alias			stern
	address			192.168.1.240
	check_command		check-host-alive
	max_check_attempts	10
	notification_interval	60
	notification_period	24x7
	notification_options	d,u,r
	}

hostgroups.cfg:
define hostgroup {
	hostgroup_name	....primarydb
	alias			Primary Database servers
	contact_groups	sysadmins
	members			..., stern, ...
}

services.cfg:
define service {
	use				normal-service
	hostgroup_name			...primarydb
	service_description		DISK
	check_command			ssh_check_disk!15%!8%
	}

checkcommands.cfg:
define command {
	command_name	ssh_check_disk
	command_line	/apps/nagios/libexec/check_by_ssh -t 15 -H 
$HOSTADDRESS$ -C '/apps/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ 
-e -X proc -X tmpfs -X devpts -X iso9660 -X usbdevfs'
	}
