Host dependency error

[Christoph Stoettner]

HI,

Have a look on this page:
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/dependencies.html

You have to make a define hostdependency section for each
dependent_host_name like on the bottom of the link above!

Please look at the FAQ too, because of differences in parent/child and
dependency setups.
