That looks correct.

What I'd recommend is to write to /tmp/nagios.cmd, check that file.

Then perform this as the same user as your PHP is run (www-data/apache  
probably):

cat /tmp/nagios.cmd >>/var/lib/nagios2/rw/nagios.cmd

You should see if it works.

Also, are you writing or appending to the nagios.cmd pipe?

I think appending is TheRightWay(tm) to do it.
