Multiple Host Notifications

[Jason Byrns]

That should be related to your notification_interval.  If you set that 
to zero, it will only notify you once for any particular problem.  I see 
you have it set to 15, so I'm not sure what the answer is there.  But 
that's the setting that should normally control this behavior.

Also, my understanding is that flap detection is at least somewhat 
experimental, in Nagios 1.2 if nothing else.  So you may want to disable 
that.  Hard to say if that is related to your current problem, but still...
