Nagios freshness checks randomly think check results are from 1973.

[fevin Kagen]

So...    is a date sent in the SNMP trap or is the date set to the
time that Nagios receives the alert?

Is there a way to output to both the existing output (the nagios
command file) and a debug output?  It doesn't happen all the time so
trying to capture a bad entry would mean taking the whole system down
for a week plus.
Thanks!
Kevin
