passive checks

Hi list,
I'm trying to configure a passive check on Nagios for an ATM router with
MPLS VPN VRFs ( to be monitored.

I configured a service like this:

define service{
        host_name                       atm1-mi
        service_description             MPLS-VRF
        is_volatile                     1
        active_checks_enabled           0
        passive_checks_enabled          1
        max_check_attempts              1
        normal_check_interval           5
        retry_check_interval            2
        contact_groups                  admins-SMS
        notification_interval           60
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        check_command                   check_none
        }

I configured snmptrapd to handle Cisco traps and pass them to a perl
script, which calls submit_check_result:

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/eventhandlers/submit_check_result atm1-mi
MPLS-VRF $retval $vrf_name

Here's what is logged in /var/log/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd when VRF goes
down:

[1120147489] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;atm1-mi;MPLS-VRF;2;my_vrf_name

Yet, nothing is done by Nagios. On the web panle, at Service Detail, i
get:

Host atm1-mi
MPLS-VRF (P)	Pending	N/A	0d 21h 8m 1s+ 0/1 Service check scheduled for
Fri Jul 1 15:13:16 2005 

It seems that Nagios is not processing passive checks correctly.
Any hint? I'm stuck :-(
Thanks
