Service notifications tied to host_groups?

[Ben Beuchler]

>From my understanding of the manual, who gets notified for a service
problem is separate from who gets notified for a host problem.  Is
there a way to configure things so that a service-related notification
is sent to the host_group's contact group instead?

For example:

HostA is managed by Bob.
HostB is managed by Bill.

Both HostA and HostB run Apache, so in my nagios config there is an
HTTP service with "HostA,HostB" in the "host_name" field.  If HTTP
dies on either HostA or HostB, it appears the notification would be
sent to the contact_groups listed in the HTTP service definition. 
What I would like to have happen is that if HTTP dies on HostA, the
notification goes to "Bob" and, of course, to "Bill" if it does on
HostB.

Is the only way around this to create a unique HTTP service for both
HostA and HostB?

Thanks!

-Ben
