You will need a VRML pligin for your browser. It's dificult to recommend
one without knowing your OS but it tends to come down to personal
preference anyway. Check the docs for some links to resources:
http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=51&expand=false&showdesc=t

You need to use 'parents' for this in your host configuration file thus:

<snip>
	host_name	child1
	parents		root
</snip>

this describes the network parent(s) of the host. N uses also these to
establish availability, again see docs for more info but basically if in
this situation if N thinks 'root' is down then it won't complain so
heartily about child[1-3] servers.

have fun!
