FW: Host checks

[Samba]

Actually the answer isn't in the documentation.  Normal_check_interval
and retry_check_interval only refer to services NOT hosts.

I have the same issue when a host check is run.  I have the retries set
to 3 and it takes 18 seconds for the ping to time-out so that only gives
me (3 x 18) = 54 seconds.  I would also like to know how to set the
retry interval in a HOST to something higher.

Thanks,

Josh

The answers are right in the documentation. Goto
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#host
and search for the normal_check_interval and
retry_check_interval.
