Some of the things I monitor are behind multiple NAT firewalls and the IP’s of the hosts are not only irrelevant but not forwarded through my firewall and thus not needed to be in my hosts.cfg file which is not on my local network. I did some searching and saw that I could enter 0.0.0.0 for the IP’s, but now my hosts.cfg file doesn’t work. What can I enter as the IP’s for hosts in my hosts.cfg file when I don’t want the IP’s specified?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#990000'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#990000'>Thank you.</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#222222'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#990000;background:white'>------------------------------------------------</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#222222'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#990000;background:white'>Kris Springer</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#222222'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
