Nagios registering all events

[Jorge Dionisio]

Hi Hendrik,

The problem is that nagios is registering all ok states, even if the state
before was ok already.
Nagios is registering all the checks it does, this is not the normal
behavior of the log file, since we have other instalations of nagios that
don't have this behavor.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Best Regards,
Jorge Dionisio
