problem creatin hostgroup

[Gezina Dekker]

Thanks for all the mails.

The command below could not catch this one. You can test it yourself by
inserting a wrong name in members, and see if the command pics it up. It
does not.

The problem was that the names specified in the individual server cfg files
(first line, after define host,host_name) the host_name  was
serverone.vodacom.com with an alias of serverone, and in the host_group it
was only serverone without the domain name. This mismatch caused the
problem... tricky to spot if it is the first time...

Thank you all for your help. Hope that the questions and subsequent answers
I generated will make it easier on those to try it in the future.

Regards

Gezina
