Here's the definitions involved. # 'Cisco 1700vzw' host definition define host{ use hosts ; Name of host template to use host_name Cisco1700vzw alias Cisco 1700 VZW address <a href="http://10.0.8.2">10.0.8.2</a> check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 20 contact_groups router-admins notification_interval 60 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,u,r } # Service definition define service{ use services ; Name of service template to use host_name Cisco1700vzw service_description PING is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 3 normal_check_interval 5 retry_check_interval 1 contact_groups router-admins notification_interval 240 notification_period 24x7 notification_options c,r check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60% } # 'routers' host group definition define hostgroup{ hostgroup_name routers alias Routers # contact_groups router-admins members Cisco1700,Cisco1700fdle,Cisco1700vzw } This is how everything else is setup and I can log in and access any information and execute any commands I want except when they involve the Cisco1700vzw. If you need the entire file let me know I'll attach those if needed.

I'd check for configuration errors with '/path/to/nagios -v /path/to/nagios.cfg', typos and also look for permission problems on the files you edited (can your web server read all of them?). Beyond that, the appropriate host, service and hostgroup definitions will probably be needed for us to troubleshoot further. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
