[Nagiosplug-help] Disabling services on specific hosts

Hi Grant,

This is probably a configuration issue with your nagios services.cfg file.
Where you define your service check for SMTP, make sure the 4 hosts you want
to monitor are specified in the "host_name" directive, and that the fifth
host is not there. This is independent of your NRPE configs.
