Hostgroup Issue

[Alex Dehaini]

Deborah,

Here is the output of /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg on my server

Total Warnings: 0
Total Errors:   0

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the pre-flight
check

I have reloaded nagios with hostgroup.cfg using

/etc/init.d/nagios reload

I still don't understand what is happening.

Thanks though
