Here they are. Everything is intact from how I have it on the server except
for the email address.

Contactgroup:

define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       admins
        alias                   Nagios Administrators
        members                 nagios
        }

Contacts:

define contact{
        contact_name                    nagios
        alias                           Nagios Admin
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_period        24x7
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r
        host_notification_options       d,r
        service_notification_commands   notify-by-email
        host_notification_commands      host-notify-by-email
        email                           email at domain.com
        }


Yes admins should get warnings, but since the escalation file says only go
past original notification for critical and recovery, shouldn't I just get 1
warning notification or 2 at most?
