general notifications setup question.

I see so I can use the following to get almost imediate responces..

check_ups -H localhost -u ups1-1 -v BATTPCT -w 95 -c 90

is that correct?

As for the service being part of the contact_group, do I just put the
service name in the contact group instead of the hostname?
