pass port from host to service

[Jun Li]

HI Marc,
Thank you for your reply and help.
I read the article you recommended. The solutions there is still hard coded 
port info from service. So, if different hosts with the same IP but diferent 
port, we have to create same amount of services serving for each host.

What I want to do is passing port info directly to command, so we create one 
service to take all kind of this process.

Although may be a bad solution, I put port info to ALIAS (because no port 
attribute in host tag) and pass the correspodent macro into command.

Now the problem which i don't know if it comes from the updates is the service 
info can be displayed when i open my nagios and the hosts i just created with 
the same IP of their parent host but different port are gone and never show 
up again.
What's the problem? Anything wrong?
Thanks,
JUn
