p.s. here are those working files:

define command{
command_name submit_check_result
command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/eventhandlers/distributed-monitoring/submit_check_result_via_nsca $HOSTNAME$ '$SERVICEDESC$' $SERVICESTATE$ '$SERVICEOUTPUT$' "misccommands.cfg"

submit_check_result_via_nsca:
case "$3" in
  OK)
    return_code=0
    ;;
  WARNING)
    return_code=1
    ;;
  CRITICAL)
    return_code=2
    ;;
  UNKNOWN)
    return_code=-1
    ;;
esac

printfcmd="/usr/bin/printf"
NscaBin="/usr/sbin/send_nsca"
NscaCfg="/etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg"
NagiosHost="XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX"
$printfcmd "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" "$1" "$2" "$return_code" "$4" | $NscaBin
$NagiosHost -c $NscaCfg

keywords: nagios, passive, nsca, ok, service, host, status, critical .
