I dont have any passowrd in my  nt.cfg file for the check_nt command..
Here is my config file:

# If you are confused about this command definition, cause you was
# reading other suggestions, please have a look into
# /usr/share/doc/nagios-plugins/README.Debian

# 'check_nt' command definition
define command {
        command_name    check_nt
        command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -v '$ARG1$'
}

# 'check_nscp' command definition
define command {
        command_name    check_nscp
        command_line    /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H '$HOSTADDRESS$' -p 12489 -v '$ARG1$'
}

If you are using the standard Ubuntu apt-get install the comand
definitions are located in /etc/nagios-plugins/config you can modifiy
the check_nt command from there in the nt.cfg file
