Based on my reading of the code, when it comes to event handlers  
there's no difference between an active and passive check. Nagios will  
_not_ run a service event handler if the host is in a non-OK state  
though. Is that the case for you? Have you enabled Debug? If so,  
what's the output during an event when a handler should fire?
