I agree, changing your notification script is the way to go. In a very simple case, the script can perform a normal notification, including the contents of a file that contains your special instructions, if it exists. Using standard naming conventions should help this greatly. For host notifications, include the contents of the file that matches the value of /path/to/instructions/$HOSTALIAS$.txt if it exists. For service notifications, include the contents of the file that matches the value of /path/to/instructions/$HOSTALIAS$-$SERVICEDESC$.txt if it exists. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
