I have this problem - according to people on the list, Nagios 2.5 should 
only run a host check when a service check reports as failed as it did 
in 1.x, but my Nagios 2.5 runs a host check every 1.5 - 2 minutes, even 
though scheduled active host checks show as disabled in the config.  I 
haven't solved this yet, but I'm going to get 2.6 on test in the next 
couple weeks.
