Firstly, and I've seen this a couple of times in the last few days with
different users - simply re-posting the same question just a few hours
after the original post isn't likely to get you results. And it is
generally considered bad netiquette.
I seldom complain, but having had this feeling of deja-vu the second
time round in the last few days I thought I'd mention it. My guess is
that many people on the mailing list increasingly ignore people who
double post questions when they don't get a reply.

"Invalid hostname/address" is the clue here... Oh and look, it
references your comma separated address entry... Surely that means...
Seems to me that Nagios is giving you a straight answer to your
question. The syntax is not correct, you must have a single IP address
defined for a host. A host is a container for a single host (I believe
there are plugins available to define a second IP for the same host, but
that isn't what you are looking for).

Not built in, but www.nagiosexchange.org is your friend.
I came across this after thirty seconds of searching (considerably
shorter than it took me to write this reply):
http://www.nagiosexchange.org/Configuration.20.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[
p_view]=277
It might be what you're looking for.
