Do I understand right that the check_http works without problems (prints
OK) but nagios claims that the host is down?
You need to change the check_host command for this host to something
that gives you a clear knowledge about the host. Or you do not monitor
the host itself and change the check_host command to some dummy.

You need any way to connect to the server. (preferably nrpe or ssh)
