Services "Flapping"

I did not define a "time object". I have run the service check from the 
nagios server and it runs fine. No other service has this behavior. 
Also, I have another nagios machine setup in a different location that 
checks the same box for the same services and that box shows no flapping 
behavior. By the way. The message I get is "Socket timeout after 10 
seconds". Not "connection refused" as one would see when the port on the 
server is closed.
