use the "parents" directive in the hosts.cfg but only if the Hosts are
Parents (so physically dependant)

Don't know! Maybe you have to hack the .c file and build again!

If you use 2d_coords it should expand the the screen so that the maximum
coordinate can be drawn. I Advise you to test nagiosmap.pl (found on
nagios.org--> extras) which makes the moving of Hosts a piece of cake!

Parents! take a look from the nagios host, so the next hop (usally switch
has the nagios host a parent, all Hosts/Switches Routers connected to this
switch have this switch as parent and so on. If you figure out what i mean
(sorry for my english) you will have nice lines between your hosts and if
a host fails you feel the power of nagios dependencies (check manual).
