I don't think I have it right yet.

I have the following resource file in /etc/naemon/naemon.cfg

# RESOURCE FILE
# This is an optional resource file that contains $USERx$ macro
# definitions. Multiple resource files can be specified by using
# multiple resource_file definitions.  The CGIs will not attempt to
# read the contents of resource files, so information that is
# considered to be sensitive (usernames, passwords, etc) can be
# defined as macros in this file and restrictive permissions (600)
# can be placed on this file.
resource_file=/etc/naemon/resource.cfg

In /etc/naemon/thruk_local.conf I now have the following:
resource_file=/etc/naemon/thruk_resource.cfg

But the service information looks the same, and variables are still 
expanded.

Which resource file should contain the variables  I do not want thruk to 
display?

Thanks,
