Thanks for the note Ilya.  I found the bug in the config CGI and fixed 
it.  The bug only affected the display of the interval in the CGIs - not 
how it was processed and used by the Nagios daemon.  Patch will be in 
CVS momentarily.

FYI, just to keep things from getting confused...  OP5 is not the 
developer of Nagios - they use it in their products, but I'm the main 
bug fixer/coder for the daemon/CGIs.  Cheers.
