Hey Marc,

Thanks for the info, much appriciated. However, I cannot seem to understand
why all my users can view the service when the contacts and contact_groups
have no entries. As far as I understand the document in question, thoose
values are only inherited from the host when thoose values arn't defined in
the service object (in the cfg file).

I tried to create a "no-contactgroup" which has no members:
define contactgroup {
        contactgroup_name       no-contactgroup
        alias   Group with none-existing user
}


And the service:
define service {
        host_name       XXX
        service_description     XXX
        check_period    24x7
        check_command   check_nrpe!XXX
        contact_groups  no-contactgroup
        notification_period     18x7
        initial_state   o
[]...
}

And the host:
define host {
        host_name       XXX
        alias   XXX
        address XXX
        parents XXX2
        check_command   check-host-alive
        contact_groups  support
[...]
}

Neither the host or the service have a contacts variable defined.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for the help!
