According to the documentation , you need to set the relevant
stalking_options in the service definition.  See:

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/stalking.html

and

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#service


I can't say I've ever tried it myself though.


Cheers,

Jim
