Possible bug in time period parsing

I'm trying to set up two types of notifications, namely emails and sms messages using gnokii.

I want the emails to go 24x7, but the sms only to go out of work hours.

The problem is, no matter what I try Nagios sends out sms messages 24x7.

I have tried commenting out the notification_period in the hosts.cfg and services.cfg file.

A subset of my config files is below (addresses and names changed). Can anyone see what I've missed?


------------------------------------------------------------------
hosts.cfg

# 'host1' host definition
define host{
use generic-host ; Name of host template to use

host_name host1
parents main_switch
alias host1 definition
address aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
check_command check-host-alive
max_check_attempts 10
notification_interval 0
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,u,r
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------
services.cfg

define service{
use generic-service ; Name of service template to use

host_name host1

I posted a help request at http://www.meulie.net/portal_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?13710.0 and people there think I may have found a bug in the timeperiod parsing routine.

Can this be looked at?

Thanks,

Kim
