I was re-reading my last message and saw the contact configuration for 
service notifications was set to (n)one. I change that to Critical and 
Warning and applied changes. Yahoo, I got a notification now from the 
service, but not quite what I expected.

The service has a "Connection refused" message yet my notification is:

Type:PROBLEM
Host: login2.mycompany.com
State: UP
Address: login2.mycompany.com
Info: PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 1.25 ms
Date/Time: 17-10-2012


Thanks,
James
