[snip] Everything you've showed looks normal. That lock file is only checked when Nagios starts up, to see if it's already running. It doesn't need any group-write permissions, and isn't even looked at when an alert is sent. Chances are you changed your configs and the changes weren't reloaded, because Nagios didn't successfully restart. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
