Services are dependent on the host they run on?

I'm in the same boat.
This should be very simple, but I'm probably just missing something.
The above docs show all sorts of complex dependencies, but I'm
actually looking for something simple.
If a host can't be pinged, there is little point in attempting to
check disk space or anything else, so I'd like to disable all the
other checks when ping fails; however according to the link above,
this would require creating specific dependency definitions for each
host and all services, defining everything as a dependency of ping.
Is there some sort of rule or wild-card that would tell Nagios that
all network based checks should be disabled if the host can't be pinged?
Thanks!
Terry
