I do mine manually.  tried nagmin, hated it (i found it's like using a
WYSIWYG HTML editor - sure, it *mostly* works, but the end result isn't
pretty).

I've written a lot of scripts to do things like gen apan config entries
and push extinfo and such.  But hosts.cfg and hostgroups.cfg and
services.cfg (etc) are all by hand.

I watch 247 hosts and 1111 services (and counting).
