Host Check 'check_tcp' not found!

[Russell Scibetti]

"check_command check_nrpe!check_ping_192.168.0.2"

This is still passing arguments.  Host check commands do not process
arguments at all in Nagios 1.x.  This feature has been added in Nagios 2.0
if you want to give that a try.  Otherwise, you will need to hardcode
additional commands to use as your host check commands.

Hi all,

I have the same problem. I need to ping some hsots that have
invalid
IPs. Soh I created a check_ping_192.168.0.2 that should be used with nrpe.

The problem is that:

check_command check_nrpe!check_ping_192.168.0.2

does not work in host definition, but does in services definition. There
must be a good reason for it... or not?
Why check_commands in host definitions cannot receive arguments!!!???

In my opinion it's a bug. And it's easy to solve.
