How about using a separator character in the name? Nagios itself treats all contacts as normal. The WebUI drops the separator and everything after it in the calculation of 'visible'. For example: jrhett#mailonly jrhett#only9-5 jrhett#emergencies The normal notification routines are unmodified, and treat these as three separate entities. But the WebUI drops #.... and thus 'jrhett' can see anything that any of the three are assigned? This is a VERY common F-A-Q. If I found a way to code this, would it be accepted as a feature? -- Joe Rhett senior geek SVcolo : Silicon Valley Colocation ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
