Can you not check a certain hostgroup?

[Andrew Bruce]

Is it possible, in a service definition to tell the service to not check a
group of hosts? 

For example, I have a hostgroup that contains some basic checks for every
Windows server. 

But some of the servers are still on NT, so don't support a particular
check, and I want to disable it for just these servers. Can I have a
hostgroup called WinNT_old with the servers I don't want to run this
particular check against and then do a service check with the hostgroup
like (or similar): 

hostgroup_name Win_All, !WinNT_old 

Thanks, 

Andrew
