Devices with more than one address

[Jesse Reynolds]

Thanks Rick, that's pretty neat.

But what about checking the different services on the different 
interfaces? eg my example with two different web servers on the one 
host, each on port 80 but on different interfaces. I suppose you 
would need to hack the check_http command in a similar fasion eh?

Cheers

Jesse
