Thank you for your response. Here is an excerpt from hostgroups.cfg.

**********************************************************************
## hostgroups.cfg ##
# 'router-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       router-admin    
        alias                   Router Admin   
        members                 ryano           
        }

**********************************************************************
