beginners problem in template based service definition

[Geiger Andreas]

Hi list,

Using nagios 1.0 - Cannot upgrade to 1.1!
I have set up a general ping service definition and want to use it for all hosts without writing this service definition for every host or hostgroup again.
So i use a list of ALL defined hostgroups via the hostgroup_name directive instead of the 
host_name directive within the ping service definition.

My problem is that the service definition requires an option for the contact_groups directive. I didn't pass this dirctive to the service definition because I think the 
contact group is defined via the hostgroup definition. 
This works and so I was able to use one service definition and send notifications to
different contacts relating to the hostgroup.
But everytime when i reload the configuration i get many warning message:

Warning: Service 'PING' on host 'xxx' has no default contact group(s) defined!

For every host assigned to the ping service.

Is there a possibility to turn off these warning messages, 
because the fill up my logs?

Do I have to specifie the ping service for every hostgroup to get around this problem?

Thanks! 

Andreas Geiger
