Yes ofcourse there is. This one is for Samba: www.samba.org

And like Patrick said if you do a "check_http -h" it tells you what ik can do. 
And if you're on a common linux distro. you can find files with:

"locate [filename]"

Then I would also check:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/beginners.html
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/monitoring-publicservices.html

And I would take your time for all this. My linux experience is over 8 years 
and it took me three weeks to have a full blown secure sms sending Nagios 
setup.

Goodluck!
