Also, the "route" tag may do something like this, but you may have to place it on each host...or the "depends" tag.
Thanks for your reply. I tried to experiment with the depends -tag, but for some reason that doesn't work like it should. Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I have this on my bb-hosts:
group Others 1.2.3.4 foo.bar # ssh smtps imaps NOCOLUMNS:files,ports,msgs depends=(conn:xymon/conn)
group Local 127.0.0.1 xymon # conn=worst,5.6.7.8 bbd http://xymon/ NOCOLUMNS:files,ports,procs,msgs
Where 5.6.7.8 is an gateway address for xymon-box. Now, AFAIK that depends -line should 'translate' as: "If foo.bar connection fails AND xymon connection fails foo.bar connection doesn't have error".
Have I understood something wrong, is the syntax wrong or is there something else going on? Xymon is an Ubuntu Ludic and xymon is installed via apt, version 4.3.0~beta2.dfsg-5.
