Alternate view for external clients

Now that we have Nagios functioning well, my supervisor would like to "publish" a select list of hosts to external clients. Ideally, these clients could:

1) See a particular subset of hosts that they are interested in.
2) Cannot see specific details (for example, they would display generic service icons rather than Windows, Novell and Unix icons).
3) Cannot change settings (the view is read-only).
4) Offers different views to alternative clients.

While a new login is simple enough, I don't know how to specify a special "extinfohost.cfg" file for these particular users! Further, how do I grant read-only access? It seems that could be done with a contact, but it also appears that a contact can modify notifications, schedule down-time, etc.

Has anyone else done this? Ideas?

Tony
