The checks of the config files didn't show any errors, but that doesn't mean the developers accounted for the situation and that I won't see any anomalies as a result. I was hoping that another user might've had some experience with it... something like "hey I tried this and it broke that" or "no problems here, go for it". That's what lists like this are for. I already RTFM'd and its not mentioned. Hence why I asked the list. And as for it being faster to try than to wait... not sure about you, but my Nagios server is considered a production system. Thus, for me it pays to wait for a response and play it safe than to rush ahead and potentially break something... few people in IT ever muck things up by waiting for good input, but quite a few have screwed stuff up by jumping ahead without enough information. FWIW: I have gone ahead and tried it and it does appear to work, though I'll have to wait to see if any issues result. Thanks for taking the time to write an answer that didn't provide any input on the actual question I posed. <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72"> A.
