Yeah, the "nagios" part just means that the nagios user spawned "./update
500". My guess is that you have a check command defined that calls
"./update", maybe the 500 is some kind of timeout? Check your command config
file.

What is 'update 500'? That's not a normal part of nagios and something
you must have created/installed. It looks like the problem is with
that program, not nagios.
