In the current 1.2.3i7 Version of CMK, its possible to set Active DNS
and SMB Checks in Wato and it's also possbile to change the Host Check
command in a easy way with Wato.

So what you are telling me is that these things cannot be added in the
gui? I don't understand why it seems they are available through the
gui then? (Host & Service Parameters, Active Checks) This is really a
show-stopper for us, because we were hoping to get out of the shell
configuration. This way we would be better off running normal Nagios.
Also, if I override the check_command, won't I only be able to run one
test against a host?
I will try to give a better example: I have a server that functions as
a name server for a small number of hosts in a separate domain. This
server is a dns server, and have some smb-shares. What I want is to
monitor that the dns server and file server works without installing
an agent on it.
I want the OMD server to nslookup against that server and check that
there is a reply and that the reply is correct. Also I want the OMD
server to check that it can access a share from that server. These two
checks are in the GUI as "Check DNS service" and "Check access to SMB
share".
I can write these into the config-files as you would do in Nagios, but
I really want to define these checks in OMD.
Thanks for all help!

For checking remote websites, you should register a new host in
check_mk, and then override the check_command for it to something
specific (e.g. poking webserver host).
In plain text mode approach, it's presented here :
http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_configvars.html ,look for
host_check_commands
The manual suggests you could use custom services against given
host as host check, i haven't explored that much.
