Yes. That's what I thought. :-/ > Whether Nagios would then realise that " contactgroup2" and > "contactgroup2" should be the same thing, I'm not sure. strip() is called after the parsing of hostescalation's contactgroups but not after the parsing of: - hostescalation's contacts - serviceescalation's contactsgroups - serviceescalation's contacts. - And some other places where comma separated values are authorized like *_commands. Note however that *_options, *_coords and timeranges should not need call to strip(). /* strip newline, carriage return, and tab characters from beginning and end of a string */ void strip(char *buffer) So the example I gave you before would only work for hostescalation's contactgroups but not anywhere else. A cleanup should be done by removing the white-space delimiter and adding strip() calls where necessary. -- Mathieu Gagné ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
