[Nagios Users] Checking status of Multihomed hosts

[rtaylor]

I have a large number of multihomed hosts I am trying to monitor with
check_ping from Nagios - does anyone know how I could implement this without
having to create a separate host definition for each interface (that really
turns your status map into a nightmare)?

I found this reference on the net to check_ping supporting checks of
multihomed hosts...

I am using check_ping version 1.1 (came with the 1.31 plugins) and it does
not seem to support that syntax.

Thanks,
