Services are dependent on the host they run on?

[Axel Rosenski]

Hi, 
I found a solution by adding a service dependency on the nrpe daemon. 

This works well with a single dependency definition for standard checks I like 
to have on all server but you need to define additional service dependencie for 
every service. 
When you work with hostgroups you can use them and don't need to define a 
dependency for every IP you want to check. 

Regards, Axel
