And by "two", I obviously meant "five".  The fifth feature is where you can
create combo tests, and adjust the alerting based on the result of boolean
tests.  For example, if you have router1 ping test and server2 http test,
you can do this in combo.cfg:

router1\-server2.web = (router1.conn==1 && server2.http==0)

Then configure your alerting to not alert for server2.http and instead only
alert for router1-server2.web.  Then you will only get an alert if the
router is up and the server web service is down.

To see the status of the combo test, you need to create a pseudo-host entry
in hosts.cfg for "router-server2".  More info in combo.cfg man page.
