NagHostGen: Generates a hosts.cfg file based on your variables.
HostServiceGen: Generates a hosts.cfg file and a windows-services.cfg file, defined hosts inherit the services defined in windows-services.cfg via the windows-servers hostgroup.
LocalRemoteHostGen: generates a hosts.cfg file and a hostgroup-hosts.cfg file. The hosts.cfg file is meant to be used on the local nagios server, while hostgroup-hosts.cfg is meant to be added to the configuration on a remote nagios server, which will receive checks passively.
How to use: 1) Mark as executable (chmod +x NagHostGen) 2) Run the script you want to use (./NagHostGen) 3) Answer a few questions about you're setup 4) Profit
