That is that you need to sit down and read the manual of nagios. So it would be very much appriciated if you take the time to sit down with the manual and find the answers in there as most of the questions you have send so far indicate that you have not even seen the manual. If something is unclear in the manual then by all means ask for clearification. But I think that asking questions that show a lack of commitment to read the manual and understanding the way in which nagios works is a cheap way of getting around you doing what you should do. And it is my simple view that we should not encourage people to start with nagios untill they have read the manual. Hugo. - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hugo.vanderkooij.org/ PGP/GPG?

Re: [Nagios-users] contacts.cfg error.
No, you have defined a _contact_. One part of the contact definition is a
pointer to the notify-by-email command which is not defined.
Here is a sample. It came from the misccommands.cfg file that was part of
the RPM I installed from fedora.
# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_namenotify-by-email
command_line/usr/bin/printf %b * Nagios
*\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost:
$HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time:
$LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$ | /bin/mail -s **
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **
