Have you checked the nagios_user= option in the nagios.cfg file?

	My email notifications are being sent from root at host. When I run
the command definition by hand it comes from nagios at host. Nagios is
running as nagios.

	 

	I'm running Solaris 7 and using mailx, simply because I couldn't
get it to work with mail.

	 

	Could Nagios be starting as root and su'ing to nagios?

	 

	Any other ideas?

	 

	 

	ps -ef | grep nagios

	define command{
