Did you set up authorized_keys for passwordless access? As the nagios  
user, did you 'ssh -l admin <host_address>' and accept the key and  
verify passwordless access? '<host_address>' must match the  
host_address specified in the host{} definition.

Does the 'admin' user have permission to run this script successfully?
