Host dependency question

[Mohamed Gombolaty]

Dear Thomas,

Thanks for the yip it really made me find something new.

Will actually I found that Host dependency is not what I need but
rather parent/child relationship is what will do my trick, by adding
the routers as hosts and have the parent part added to the hosts
config will make nagios follow the tree, and even more will make the
status map reflect the relation ship.

Thanks a million Thomas.

Thx
MAG
