web content I mentioned is under the Monitoring category -> Service Detail,
where I can see every service 's status on each host. I m using Apache2. I even
tried to restart the http service, but won't work either, web shows every
service 's status is OK, while nagios is not running.
Normal?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>If you shutdown the remote
one, the central one will not know that the remote machine is no longer
sending passive checks unless you set the check_freshness command on the
central server.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>1.
after the configuration, I can monitor the services on the local and remote
hosts</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>2.
when I made the changes on the configuration, I need to restart the
nagios process </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>3.
for the first couple of times when I restarted the nagiso process,
the service that being monitored, their status on the web would
show Pending first and then turned to green one by one ... which is
OK</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>4. I
leave it there for a night, this morning, when I shutdown the nagios, found
the the content on the web is still the same, which all services are still
OK/green even without nagios.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>5. I
tried to shutdown some of the services as well, but the content still would
not be changed. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>6.
then I started the nagios again, this time it would refresh the status and
tells the services that I shutdown are CRITICAL/Red.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=061462418-28072005>7. I
killed the nagios process again, everything stays the same.
