P.S. "testhost" is actually a virtual IP on "firewall" that is nat'd to testhost.nat.foobar.com using private 10.x.x.x addresses behind that firewall. P.P.S. I only have 3 hosts currently configured. The host that runs nagios, "firewall" and "testhost". They are all shown as directly connected to "nagios process". thanks in advance for any/all help. -- "Computer science is as much about computers as astronomy is about telescopes" -- Edsger Dijkstra --------------------------------------------------------- Anthony Tonns, UNIX Administrator - atonns@mail.ivillage.com </BODY> </HTML>
