Yes, it was in different format than the rest of the Nagios files. Why
was it so? I thought that the template format is the default one now?

I found it. The command that did the trick was

  /usr/lib/nagios/convertcfg command.cfg commands >command.cfg


I encountered another problem with it, though:

--<snip>--
Error: Command 'check_ifoperstatus' has already been defined

Error: Could not register command (config file
'/etc/nagios/command.cfg', line 352)
--</snip>--

There was a duplicate entry for it. I uncommented it away. Same thing
with snmp_swap and snmp_mem.

notify-by-email, notify-by-epager, host-notify-by-email and
host-notify-by-epager were found also from misccommands.cfg from where I
uncommented them away (the plugins thingie is newer than Nagios 1.0,
right?).

After fixing those I got the beast finally running :)

Cheers,
