In short, you can't.  The closest you can get is to have the type A
servers have their own BB setup, and use the "status" keyword to report
their information back to the main BB page.

The main page (on the main bbserver):
Not much info, perhaps just network routers &c.
	The "type A server" page:
	bb-hosts with the type-A machines listed, in groups or subpages.
	bb-hosts specifies to send a summary to the main page

This way, your main page would have a link to the A server pages, which
could then be drilled down to each city, or whatever.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to get all these to run on a single
server.  Perhaps a new feature -- run more than one bb-display on a
server, with different config (bb-hosts) files.

I have visions of screaming with (at and about) Microsoft software, too.
