Hi Everyone,
Sorry the last post didn't contain any configuration information. I was
hoping someone had seen this before. Here are the relevant files:

Original message:
I'm still fairly new to Nagios and I'm having a problem with notifications.
I keep getting unwanted UP messages like:
>Subject: PROBLEM alert - Host /xxxhostname.domainname/ is UP
>Host 'SunFire-880 - Solaris 9 - NBU Media Server 2' is UP
>Info: PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.29 ms
>Time: Fri Apr 28 14:16:19 PDT 2006
These messages only occur when a service is down (for something like
maintenance) but the host is up. This is occurring from all
hosts/servers. Also, these messages don't appear under the
'Notifications' page on the web interface. I've adjusted the settings
and eliminated any 'Recovery' options for events or notifications, but I
still get the messages.
Has anyone seen these messages before? Can anyone give me advice on
what setting I have wrong or is this a bug I need to report?
Thanks in advance for any help!
