Does your icinga.cfg file have any "cfg_dir" declarations
in it, and, if so, do those directories have any *.cfg files
in them. If so, those may be throwing problems your way.
A very common idiom is to set templates up so that the
declarations contained therein will be inherited "downwards"
to individual objects. The nasty bit about those is that if
some of the *really* key declarations (e.g. host_name or
service_description) are erroneously defined in the template
then it is possible to get "duplicate" errors.

The notion of "windows-server" should be a template, and that
template should have *nothing* in it that refers to a host_name
or alias.

The rest of that host declaration looks valid so long as all
the other bits are properly inherited from "windows-server". In
the above configuration, I personally would have used a host-
declaration file in a so-listed "cfg_dir" declaration in icinga.cfg
named {host}.cfg.
Make sure that your templates do not contain the "host_name"
or "alias" declarations.
