time interval in between checks in seconds

[Neil]

Hi Anthony, 

So if I wanted to have ping check executed 4 times (every 15 secs), this 
should be my services.cfg and nagios.cfg. However, I think my services.cfg 
is wrong. Can someone correct it please? 

nagios.cfg:
 -----------
interval_length=15 

services.cfg:
 -------------
define service{
       use                             generic-service         ; Name of 
service template to use 

       host_name                       www001
       service_description             PING
       is_volatile                     0
       check_period                    24x7
       max_check_attempts              2
       normal_check_interval           2
       retry_check_interval            1
       contact_groups                  www-admins
       notification_interval           120
       notification_period             24x7
       notification_options            c,r
       check_command                   check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
       }
