I've installed Nagios and have it working to monitor my linux localhost without problems, so I tried to add a Windows server to monitor. I followed the instructions in Nagios Documentation, Monitoring Windows Machines. After installing and starting NSClient++ on the Windows machine and making the changes to /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg and /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/windows.cfg I tried verifying the configuration with /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg. I get this error...

Error: Could not find any hostgroup matching 'allhosts' (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/windows.cfg', starting on line 25) Error: Hostgroup has no members (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/windows.cfg', starting on line 47) ***> One or more problems was encountered while processing the config files... Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the 'Whats New' section to find out what has changed. I get this on 2 linux PCs configured similarly. I've re-read the instructions and I've got everything correct. Why am I getting this error?
