Extending Nagios?

[Linux Administrator]

Ya steve , it is possible and quite easy to get

edit your serviceexeinfo file and add something like ( these is working 
fine for me, )
define serviceextinfo {
       service_description  ntload
       host_name       sys3
       notes_url       
/nagios/show.cgi?host=$HOSTNAME$&service=$SERVICEDESC$
       icon_image      graph.gif
       icon_image_alt  View graphs
     }

and in host extinfo do following
define hostextinfo{
        host_name sys3  ; This name is referenced in other hostextinfo 
definitions that
        icon_image              novell40.gif
        vrml_image              novell40.gif
        gd2_image               novell40.gd2
        statusmap_image         novell40.gd2
        }

this will show you a small tiny icone in 'service details'

hth
