/var/nagios.tmpXXX files never delete (2.0b3)

Are you running one of the MSSQL plugins? I think I remember a post a
few months ago saying that one of those plugins was leaving a lot of
temporary files around.

You could check the creation date of the files with the "stat" command,
and correlate it to your nagios.log to see if it was a particular
service check or notification command that created them, and which one.

Cheers, Chris.
