Haha ;)

No, seriously. I think this is a bad idea with the current way
configuring Nagios. I mean: try to parse it.. even as a human ;)

I just wonder why Nagios developers didn't go for the XML style..

It would nevertheless be nice to have more ips per host.. But if a
service runs on all (most -badly- configured onces do), it's enough to
check only one.
