Here is a patch a buddy of mine put together which allows the nsca.cfg
for the nsca daemon to allow hostnames, along with IPs, in the
allowed_hosts field. It uses the gethostbyname and the inet_ntoa system
functions.

The patch was coded to work the FreeBSD ports version of nsca-2.4.
However, even though the patch is not portable, the modification itself
should be.
