I'm somewhat new to Zenoss; but for the most part I've figured it out and am 
quite impressed so far.  I work for a web hosting company and we're looking at 
using this as a replacement for aging cacti/mon.cgi monitors that we use now.

My question is this; is there some way to disable IP service monitoring for 
multiple hosts at once?  For example, we have several machines that run SMTP 
but only for localhost connections.  Zenoss sees that SMTP is there and 
automatically enables the SMTP monitoring; however, it's constantly producing 
error events because port 25 denies external connections.  I figured out how to 
disable it on individual machines through the Device -> OS -> IP Services 
section.  However, it's a huge pain in the but to have to do that on 50+ 
machines.  Is there some way that it can be changed for a specific device group 
or something like that, instead of disabling the service on a per device basis? 
 Keep in mind that we do still want it on most of the machines; so globally 
disabling the check isn't an option either.

Thanks,
