check-host-alive in hosts.cfg

[Jeremy T. Bouse]

	You have to have atleast 1 service assigned for a host in order
for it to be checked... If you had other services besides ping and just
removed the ping service check than it should be fine but if there are
not other services for a host then ping is the easiest minimum
solution...
