There is no way nagios can accept a range of ip-addresses for a host, since it wouldn't know which of the presumably multiple hosts in the range is responding to what. Since you don't have control over the DHCP server, following Jim Avery's advice and letting the laptops send passive check-results to your nagios server is definitely the best solution. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Register now for Nordic Meet on Nagios, June 3-4 in Stockholm http://nordicmeetonnagios.op5.org/ Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
