To show both Unhandled Critical and Warning Service issues you could use a link like the following that combines both views -- http://your-nagios-host/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?host=all&type=detail&s ervicestatustypes=20&hoststatustypes=3&serviceprops=42 > After filtering them out, how would I know that they have recovered, does > it > reset the acknowledgment when a device comes back online? Yes, it does. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
