Perhaps I haven't made myself clear.  I know all about NSCA, and I know
all about being able to write commands to the external command file.  What
I need to know is whether there is a distinction between host-checking
commands and service-checking commands when writing to the command file
with a "PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT" command.

It seems to work for individual services, but I want to UP/DOWN the remote
_HOST_ rather than each of its services individually, from a script that
runs on the monitoring host.
