Hi Jeff, 

I also took out lines that are just paths. Here it is.

log_rotation_method=d
use_syslog=0
log_notifications=1
log_service_retries=0
log_host_retries=0

illegal_object_name_chars=`~!$%^&*|'"<>?,()=
illegal_macro_output_chars=`~$&|'"<> 


Actually, below is how it looks now. I found out after tweaking 
service_reaper_frequency and interval_lenght. I even got it to a recommended 
value of 186. :) But I don't know if it's good for a production monitoring 
server. So I brought it down just to 15. 

       SERVICE SCHEDULING INFORMATION
       -------------------------------
       Total services:             76
       Total hosts:                43 

       Command check interval:     5 sec
       Check reaper interval:      10 sec 

       Inter-check delay method:   SMART
       Average check interval:     163.421 sec
       Inter-check delay:          2.150 sec 

       Interleave factor method:   SMART
       Average services per host:  1.767
       Service interleave factor:  2 

       Initial service check scheduling info:
       --------------------------------------
       First scheduled check:      1075414482 -> Thu Jan 29 14:14:42 2004
       Last scheduled check:       1075414643 -> Thu Jan 29 14:17:23 2004 

       Rough guidelines for max_concurrent_checks value:
       -------------------------------------------------
       Absolute minimum value:     5

Let me know your recommendations.
