how to get passive checks to work

Hi,

In my services.cfg I have:
define service {
        use             generic-service
        host_name       p630
        service_description     manual call
        contact_groups  aix-admins
        active_checks_enabled   0
        passive_checks_enabled  1
        check_command   check_dummy
        }

Now in my php script I send the following string (tried both with and
without terminating \n) to the pipe /var/lib/nagios2/rw/nagios.cmd ;
[1205935241] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;p630;manual call;2;test

The problem now is: no action is performed! The event does not show up
in the logfile (/var/log/nagios2/nagios.log) and also no e-mail is sent
(no sms is send either).

Configfile:
mmc:/etc/nagios2# grep passive nagios.cfg | grep -v "^#"
log_passive_checks=1
accept_passive_service_checks=1
accept_passive_host_checks=1
