I think this a pretty cool demonstration of the power and utility of the 
template configuration (the generic service named 'ssh' defines all of 
the properties required by the _two_ hostgroups).

Surely this replaces a whole bunch of service definition.

Oh-ho, I can feel an irresistible urge to reorganise my entire 
services.cfg ...

Thank you,

Yours sincerely.

Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a

me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
