Thgat's why you set up a second server and have both monitor each other.

Doing that breaks a bunch of things.

Can probably do it using bbgen (available from deadcat.net) or hacking the 
web poage generation scripts a little. You could always put it on a page 
by itself in a group-only block with no services to display.

might be able to do it this way

group BBserver <!-- hide me
bbserver 1.2.3.4 # BBDISPLAY
group Everybody -->
server1
server2
etc.

but that might look funny....who knows....give it a shot.
