I am relatively new to Nagios, I am setting up a group of Linux machines that
all send reports to a central monitoring one with nsca.

I have a separate .cfg file for each machine, I would like to share this file
between remote and central machines - so that if I change anything I just copy 
it over.

One change that *is* needed is the value of active_checks_enabled - which is 
zero
on the central box and one on the remote.

I tried something like this in a 'define service':

        active_checks_enabled           $USER11$

and elsewhere had:

        $USER11$=1
or
        $USER11$=0

as appropriate for the machine.

This does not work. Why ? and is there a way of achieving what I want to do ?

TIA
