Is there some kind of proxy or filter between the system running Nagios
and the client machine from where you are accessing (if any)?

That behaviour has a slight resemblance to this bug report:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630727
While not exactly the same, both problems seem to be related with the
"host_name" variable and both experience problems to render the host from
the Services tab. Curious.

If you were able to reproduce the issue it could be reported but given
that works fine in another host, you will have to convince developers
that the problem is not in your side which is a rather hard task :-)

You're welcome and good to know you at least discovered the problematic
file/setting.
