Basic question...

[timk at perljam.net]

Hi all,

  I recognize that this is probably a very basic question, but I've tried 
googling (using '+Nagios "hosts.cfg"'), reading through the FAQ, and 
searching the mailing list archives, and I've not been able to find the 
answer to this question.

  I've gotten Nagios installed just fine, but I'm trying to define the 
machines & services to monitor.  When editing the services.cfg file, I've 
seen the 'notification options' entries (w,u,c,r), but I've not been able 
to find anything that tells me what 'w,u,c,r' stand for.  The same thing 
goes for the notification options in the hosts.cfg file.  I've speculated 
that the 'd,u,r' in the hosts.cfg probably stands for 'D'own, 
'U'nreachable and I haven't yet figured out what the 'R' stands for.

  Like I said, I know that it's probably a pretty remedial question, but 
I'd be appreciative if someone could throw a "clue stick" this way...

Thanks,

T.
