Nagios notifications

Thanks for the reply but I don¹t know that that would help us.  The problem
isn¹t that we cant select individual contacts.  The problem is our contacts
are getting service notifications for hosts that aren¹t assigned to any of
their associated contact groups.

Our scenario:

³contact1² is assigned to ³contactgroup1²
³host1² is assigned to ³contactgroup1²
³service1² is assigned to run on ³host1², ³host2², and ³host3² and is
assigned to ³contactgroup1²
(note: ³host2² and ³host3² are not assigned to ³contactgroup1² are are not
otherwise associated to ³contact1²)

In this scenario, why does contact1 get service notifications for host2 and
host3?

Sorry if I¹m making this explanation more complicated than necessary.

Dustin
