Thanks for the help with depends:

| Speaking of inheritance, is it possible to override

| a particular group. The one inside that group isn't
| being used.

|     notify: mail:ces at famvid.com
| 
|     Group "testgroup" {
| 	  hostname: 10.0.0.3
| 	  Service Ping
| 	  notify: mail:mischief at famvid.com
|     }


this is not a valid syntax. you should be seeing errors
in your logs when you start argus.


data must be put before objects.
watch:

	Group "name" {
		data

		objects
	}

and not:

	Group "name" {
		objects

		data
	}
