[Nagiosplug-help] check_http keeps coming up with 404

[David Gossage]

Looking at what you have posted here your nagios server is doing a
check_http and so your nrpe on the remote server is never hit or used.
(I'd also recommend changing it from check_http to avoid being confused
which is your defined check and which is the nagios plugin)  If you want
to hit the nrpe on remote server the command should likely be this:

/etc/nagios/services_hosts/host1.cfg 
define service{         
    use                             vc-service         ; Name of service
template to use         
    host_name                       host1         
    service_description             check_http
     normal_check_interval           15         
   check_command                   check_nrpe!check_http
}

Or if you want to not use check_nrpe the command you defined as

define command{
         command_name    check_http 
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c
$ARG2$ 
}

Should be this

define command{
         command_name    check_http 
        command_line    $USER1$/check_http -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c
$ARG2$  -u $arg3$
}

and the check would be 

check_command                   check_http!5!10!ident.html

That's how I see it.
