[naemon-dev] Submit passive check with the ip address instead of the hostname failed

[arnaud.esnault-prestataire at labanquepostale.fr]

Hi,

With nagios, it is possible to submit passive check with ip address 
instead of the hostname (for process_passive_host_check or 
process_passive_service_check). If I do the same thing with naemon, I have 
an error (Ex. : Failed validation of service as type service (argument 
0)). 

I read the naemon source and I see that : 
In the function process_passive_host_check (or 
process_passive_service_check) called to process the command 
CMD_PROCESS_HOST_CHECK_RESULT (or CMD_PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT), the 
host is found by the function find_host_by_name_or_address. 
But, before this process, the function command_parse is called to validate 
the arguments of the commands, and during this validation, the host is 
found only by the function find_host (see function resolve_object) and not 
by the function find_host_by_name_or_address. So if I have an ip address 
into a command CMD_PROCESS_HOST_CHECK_RESULT, the command parse failed. 
The same problem exists for the command CMD_PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT. 

So I believe, there is an anomaly in the command parse function to 
validate arguments of the the commands CMD_PROCESS_HOST_CHECK_RESULT and 
CMD_PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT with ip address instead of the hostname. 
Unless it is the new way chosen by naemon.
