submit_check_result problem

[Bill Stevenson]

This an attempted distributed configuration with
Nagios 2.0b2 on FreeBSD.

Update:  The problem is submit_check_result is sending
the wrong data...somewhat. 


Here's an entry from /var/log/messages on the
distributed server(send_nsca debug is on): 

Aug 27 20:45:20 nagios3 nsca[58000]: SERVICE CHECK ->
Host Name: 'w2k-813', Service Description: 'submit',
Return Code: '0', Output: '1 data packet(s) sent to
host successfully.'

Here's the entry from /var/spool/nagios/nagios.log on
the central server: 

[1125193534] EXTERNAL COMMAND:
PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;w2k-813;submit;0;1 data
packet(s) sent to host successfully.

My submit_check_result command is this: 

define command{
	command_name	submit_check_result
	command_line
/usr/local/libexec/nagios/submit_check_result
$HOSTNAME$ '$SERVICEDESC$' $SERVICESTATE$
'$SERVICEOUTPUT$'
	}

I changed from '$OUTPUT$' to '$SERVICEOUTPUT$' to see
what would happen now this Output: '1 data packet(s)
sent to host successfully.' is send to the server
instead of this Output: '$OUTPUT$'

My submit_check_result contains: 

/usr/bin/printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" "$1" "$2"
"$return_code" "$4" |
/usr/local/libexec/nagios/send_nsca 192.168.11.27 -c
/usr/local/etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg


On the Nagios central server I have
accept_passive_service_checks=1

And on the distributed server I have 
obsess_over_services=1
and 
ocsp_command=submit_check_result

According to the http interface, all services are in
PENDING status. This most likely a dumb question among
many, but is this caused by the incorrect format being
submitted by the distributed server?

Thanks,
Bill
