Hi to all,
i insert in my nagios.cfg the sequent line:
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/server/portal1.cfg

and in this file the content is the sequent:

cat /usr/local/nagios/etc/server/portal1.cfg
define host{
name                portal1    ; The name of this host template
use                generic-host    ; This template inherits other values 
from the generic-host template
check_period            24x7        ; By default, Linux hosts are 
checked round the clock
check_interval            5        ; Actively check the host every 5 minutes
retry_interval            1        ; Schedule host check retries at 1 
minute intervals
max_check_attempts        10        ; Check each Linux host 10 times (max)
check_command               check-host-alive ; Default command to check 
Linux hosts
notification_period        workhours    ; Linux admins hate to be woken 
up, so we only notify during the day
notification_interval        120        ; Resend notifications every 2 hours
notification_options        d,u,r        ; Only send notifications for 
specific host states
contact_groups            admins        ; Notifications get sent to the 
admins by default
address                192.168.10.31
}


if i execute:
 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios  -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg |grep 
-i 'hosts'
Checking hosts...
    Checked 1 hosts.

It finds only localhost configuration host, but if i execute the strace 
of nagios -v i see that the script read the portal1 config file.

Have you any idea???

Sorry for my English

Thanks
