title: setting up passive checks on nagios
body: <p>hello board this question may be a little clean and green however, </p>
  
  <p>I've been trying to set up Nagios NSCA for passive checks on a local ubuntu box as a prototype.</p>
  
  <p>for those in the know, my nsca listening on 5667 and send_nsca is on the same ubuntu computer (localhost 127.0.0.1) . I've been reading and testing object definitions and service templates however I have been getting config errors when i try to access nagios web after modifications.</p>
  
  <p>I hope to get clearer instructions on how I can create the service (directories/configurations) to process passive checks in Nagio3 for ubuntu. </p>
