Which is how I have ours, but that only works with *1* nagios server, not 
*2*, where they are on different switches, in completely different 
locations.  You are entirely missing the point I am making here, in that it 
is NOT possible currently to build correct status maps for 2 nagios servers 
in a failover environment.
