I'm not exactly sure how I did it, but I remember having to change
something from the defaults when I built the net-mgmt/nagios-plugins
port because the check_ping command wasn't working right. I'd suggest
going back and re-making that port to see if you get any error messages.

I want to say that it wasn't finding the ping binary, but I don't think
that's what it was.
