Have you considered using a web interface? I've had good success with Nagios
Web Config which augments the existing interface. It requires PHP, MySQL and
a little effort setting up but (IMHO) it's worth it (Nagios 2.x only):

<http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagiosweb/>

Caveat: I'm not sure if it'll import your existing hosts, services, etc.
GroundWork Open Source <http://www.groundworkopensource.com/> will, but
that's a pretty major change to make.

Caveat 2: If you're heading down this track I'd recommend backups of the
MySQL database prior to any large scale changes as it's very occasionally
(twice in 12+ months) left our Nagios config files in an inconsistent state
which prevents Nagios from running. Easily fixed though.

HTH, and cheers,

Paul.
