host notifications -- bug?

[Niall Mansfield]

The answer: /etc/init.d/nagios restart in fact
started a second instance of nagios.  The Host DOWN alerts
were coming from the old instance of Nagios, reading
the old version of the config files, which did have
notifications enabled for the host in question.
