Hello, 

I would like to know if it is possible to manage host entries in a nagios 
config file? Each host entry looks like this:


define host{
        host_name                       foo
        alias                           bar
        address                         1.2.3.4
        check_command                   check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts              5
        check_period                    24x7
        process_perf_data               0
        retain_nonstatus_information    0
        contact_groups                  sysadmins
        notification_interval           30
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            d,u,r
        }




I've been experimenting  with 'insert_if_not_match_from_list ' but I believe 
with the above structure that may not be the correct approach. I would like CFE 
to append thie bock of text above if 'foo' is not found in the file. The 
problem I am running into is that the rest of that block is non-unique so it 
never adds the entire block more than once. 

Any suggestions?
