However, I cannot seem to understand why all my users can view the service when the contacts and contact_groups have no entries. As far as I understand the document in question, thoose values are only inherited from the host when thoose values arn't defined in the service object (in the cfg file). I tried to create a "no-contactgroup" which has no members: define contactgroup { contactgroup_name no-contactgroup alias Group with none-existing user } And the service: define service { host_name XXX service_description XXX check_period 24x7 check_command check_nrpe!XXX contact_groups no-contactgroup notification_period 18x7 initial_state o []... } And the host: define host { host_name XXX alias XXX address XXX parents XXX2 check_command check-host-alive contact_groups support [...] } Neither the host or the service have a contacts variable defined. Am I missing something? Thanks for the help!
