Yes - only alphanumeric, dot, dash, and underscore are permitted:

   Hostgroup Entries
   Hostgroup entries begin with the keyword hostgroup, and are followed by
   a hostgroup tag and one or more hostnames or IP addresses, separated by
   whitespace.  The hostgroup tag must be composed of alphanumeric charac-
   ters, a dash ("-"), a period ("."), or an underscore  ("_").  Non-blank
   lines  following the first hostgroup line are interpreted as more host-
   names.  The hostgroup definition ends with a blank line. For example:

  hostgroup servers nameserver smtpserver nntpserver
   nfsserver httpserver smbserver

  hostgroup router_group cisco7000 agsplus

eval error for dependency starting

2005-11-17 Thread Frank Isemann 
hi

i get this damn error:

Nov 17 22:28:57 lagoon mon[14598]: eval error for dependency starting at
ubcom~dns:ping

for each group that have a "depend" entry: like "depend SELF:ping"

this error blocks the "alert" mechanism ...

is that a general error or is that because i have added the "~ยจ char to
the group/watch entrys?
