NSCA Wierdness?

[Brady Maxwell]

Steve,

Yes I am certain I defined the host. I think the issue was caused 
because I basically did a cut and paste from the host file on the 
distributed server to the central server. I remarked out the ip of the 
box IVAN (as well as many others) in the host file afterward and I think 
these messages went away. Also I disabled host checking on the central 
box because none of the monitored hosts are accessable on the local network.

I am not sure this was the correct way to get rid of this warning but I 
am still working on it. :)

Thanks
Brady
