I was wondering if there was a way to allow empty contacts and empty contact groups in nagios core?
Currently it errors out if they exist. I know there is an allow_empty_host_group boolean so I was wondering if this is possible/
Nagios 4 core.
Thanks.

Re: Inheritance doesn't seem to be working for config templa
I've ensured the files are owned by nagios
I've ensured the names are not misspelled and syntax is correct.
All config files are called out in nagios.cfg
