recurring downtime

Have you considered scheduling host downtime instead?  There's one fewer 
parameter to pass to the script.  I think the service name is the 
tripping point.  I was able to copypaste your command into a shell on my 
Nagios  (with minor mods to work in my environment) and have it work.

My services.cfg contains this:

use                     standard_service
name                    Disk_C
service_description     Disk: C
display_name            Disk: C
check_command           check_nt_disk!C!85!95

No matter what you use for the service name, it will show up in 
nagios.log.  However, it's only when I use Disk: C that the downtime 
shows up on the web page.  If I use Disk_C it does not.

All the services for which I regularly schedule downtime happen to have 
the same string for their name, service_description, and display_name. 
I didn't need to figure out which one I needed.  However, I did get 
tripped up setting service escalations the first time, because those use 
the service_description and not the name.  It might be the same case here.
