Passive service freshness check syntax

As a follow, up, setting it as below caused the freshness checks to start
working.
 
However, in the GUI, they are listed as disabled problems, not unhandled
problems. Which is an issue. When a freshness check trigger a critical, I
want it to be an unhandled problem, not a disabled one. (Which is probably
why I was using the original syntax.)
 
So I guess the follow up is did anything change between 1.x and 2.x that
would have causes the 1st syntax to stop working? Will check_period now
block freshess triggered active checks?

Did the methodology for passive service freshness checks change at some
point. 

I have my config set up as 

Check_period                    none 
passive_checks_enabled  1 
Active_checks_enabled           1 

Which if I recall was to allow active checks to be forced, as the freshness
check would do, not not run on a regualar basis.

Yet from the recent docs, it looks like the proper method should be. 

Check_period                    24x7 
Passive_checks_enabled  1 
Active_checks_enabled           0 


Which is it? 

I am trying to debug why freshness checking is no longer working. (2.0b4 and
2.0b6)
