You could read it from <nagios-root>/var/objects.cache if you like. It
could be expensive to do an exhausive search there, so you might want to
cache the info somewhere.
Whatever way you choose, I believe you need to write the notification
command as a script instead of a one-liner in your commands.cfg.
If you have to fiddle an awful lot with it, you might be better off
just patching Nagios to understand a $CONTACTGROUPS$ macro or some
such.
