Thanks for the infos, but if I understand the mentioned docs right, the 
custom object variables will not solve my problem.

My problem is, I define a host with "address 2001:....." and I got 
"Invalid host name '2001:..." from check_nrpe.

I guess, whatever variable I take to handover the IPv6 to check_nrpe, 
check_nrpe will still be unable to use the IPv6 to access the host, right?

Kind regards
Thomas
