RES: Notification flood after host down

[Sandro Vaz (UOL)]

Ian e Jim:

I'm also having this problem too (not receiving CRITICAL service alerts when
the host goes down, but when the hosts comes back, receiving RECOVERY
service alerts for that host), and i am sure there is no second Nagios
instance running... Could you point me where i am wrong?

Any help is appreciated.

Here my configs....
