Nope. I do this for pretty much all of my hosts, actually. For example, all printers are in a "Printer" host group, to associate services as well as group all printers together. Additionally, I have a host group for each location we have machines in, so a printer in Barrow would be in both the printer hostgroup (for the services) and the "Barrow" hostgroup (for the location). Makes it easy to find all the machines in barrow, as well as all the printers. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 ----------------------------------------------- > > > Cheers, > -- jra > -- > Jay R.
