My script currently adds new hosts and associated stuff.  Due to the
rather dynamic nature of our clients and our satellite terminals we have
a need to frequently update hostnames and IP addresses in nagios. As my
role is effectively as an external consultant and I'm not in the office,
I currently handle updates on a weekly basis.  My boss would like to be
able to do minor updates in the office, which means we need NagMIN (as
those doing the updates will be non-tech/non-sysadmin people)

cheers
Matthew.
