[Nagios-users] Assigning Services to Hosts/Hostgroups

2009-03-30 Thread Chris Pepper
We'd like to assign services to hostgroups or hosts (even host templates would be useful) rather than assigning them in the service. The problem with assigning them in the service definition is that we have to touch 2 places each time we add a new host, which is error-prone.
