<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=420581110-18022003>i'm interested to
know what check intervals you guys use in your environments. i'm currently
checking around 250 services off 60 hosts, of which around 15 are routers. as

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=420581110-18022003>has anyone
experimented with various intervals and come up with a good mix without
killing your nagios box every 2 minutes?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
