Hi, all!

We are monitoring an external FTP server that is not in our
control but that we depend on for a certain part of our business.

After the FTP service failed for a short period of time on
Saturday, the host was flagged "down" and has not come up
since. I just found out that the other admin blocks ICMP.
The FTP server works fine, though. I wonder if they have
"misterious" problems with customers that have an MTU
slightly less than 1500 somewhere in their path ;-))

Is there a way to tell Nagios not to bother checking
if a host is alive with ICMP echo and just continue checking
the service instead?

Thanks a lot,
Patrick
