Dear list, I have nagios3 on Debian Lenny. I created a service template and host template for a customer as well as a couple of contacts and a contact group. I specified the contact group in the host and service template and created some host and service defininitions based on the aforementioned templates.
So I hoped that notifications would be sent to these new contacts as per the setup descibed above. This hope failed, and notifications were only sent to a 'admins' contactgroup, which is not specified anywhere in the setup of those hosts, services, contacts, group or template. When I remove the 'admins' contact group from the config files and run a test of the config, I get this: Error: Contact group 'admins' specified in service 'SYSTEM STATUS' for host 'host.domain.tld' is not defined anywhere! Even though this contact group is mentioned nowhere in connection with these hosts or services. It seems that all contact groups except the one named 'admins' fail to register with the Nagios system and that the 'admins' contact group is somehow automatically associated with all host definitions, regardless of which contact group is actually specified in configuration.
