Andrew,

Not sure how to do that, but I might suggest using hostgroups based on
location. You can then use the Status Summary page to click on a
hostgroup and assign downtime to all hosts and services in that group.
If this creates too many hostgroups for you to manage, I'd then suggest
the side.pl hack (http://www.nagiosexchange.org/NagSide.1766.0.html) to
make SuperGroups that can be collapsed or expanded in the left hand
menu. In general, I think it makes Nagios a much more manageable program
to boot.

> P.P.S. Anyone know where I can find icons for printers and wireless
access points?  

No idea on the WAP images. You find any, you let me know, I work for a
WISP!
