You mean as mentioned in README.Debian:

----

External Commands
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Nagios 3 is not configured to look for external commands in the
default configuration as a security feature. To enable external
commands, you need to allow the web server write access to the
nagios command pipe.
...
And so on.


Closing this "Bug" now.
