Hi all,

my nagios system monitors some servers behind firewal,  and sometimes
happens that firewall
is not reachable due to some network problem. All checks are delivered
thru firewall.

I am monitoring firewall too, and I am just checking PING to it and
rount trip time

with

define service{
        use                     test
        host_name               firewall
        service_description     PING
        check_command           check_ping!200.0,40%!400.0,50%
}



I read all information at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/dependencies.html about
dependencies and in

/etc/conf.d I created dependencies.cfg with

define hostdependency{
        host_name                       firewall
        dependent_host_name     host_behind_firewall
        notification_failure_criteria   d
        }

with this I want to stop checkig ( and get just one notification about
failure ) of host(s) behind firewal in case it is not possible to
ping firewall .

Then I blocked ping on firewall and it showed as DOWN via nagios web,
but still I am getting correct information about
"host behind firewall", but I am expecting to get inforormation that
all is stoped as checking host behind firewall depends on
firewall availibility.
This is just simple scenario, I need  to stop all checks in case
connection to firewall does not works.

I someone know what I should check more, please write

Thank you in advance for help
