Attached is a patch for 2.5 that implements what I described above. It
works on both hosts and services.

The following four lines are are examples of read/write access for
netops and helpdesk:

contact_groups netops, helpdesk
contact_groups netops, helpdesk:rw
contact_groups netops:rw, helpdesk
contact_groups netops:rw, helpdesk:rw

The following two lines are are examples of read/write access for netops
and read only (view only) for helpdesk:

contact_groups netops, helpdesk:r
contact_groups netops:rw, helpdesk:r

hi community,
to create a quite flexible system using nagiosgraph, rrd, and
performance data of nagios i need a particular variable that i cannot
find in nagios macro list.
i need the value of "normal_check_interval" exported by the command of
perfomance data. Does it exist?
if not, i'd really like to see this value in the future version of nagios.
It's a must for RRD because i need to change step and hearbeat value in
according to normal_check_interval.
I found a solution, but my programming skill is basic, and is quite ugly.

Sorry for my english.

Matteo
