Passive tests and notifications

[Rossz Vamos-Wentworth]

Yesterday I configured a couple of passive tests on one of my servers,
disk space and the mysql process, to be specific.  Later that night I
logged on to the status screen to check things and saw that the passive
tests were marked "OK", but they hadn't been updated for several hours
even though the cronjob I set up was every 30 minutes.  I obviously made
some kind of mistake that I will deal with on monday (can't do anything
right now on the remote server because I recently changed the root
password and can't remember what it is, :) so have to wait until I'm in
the office and can look it up).

What bothers me is I never received a notification.  How do I get nagios
to send out a notification or fall back to an active test if the
information is stale?
