Hi Marc,

I have a simila requirement here. As i refer before, i have change the two
values in common.h (NSCA) and nagios.h (Nagios) to synchronize the
MAX_INPUT Buffers to 7168 Byte.
Then I recompiled all NSCA-Versions (Linux and Windows), Nagios and wrote
my own plugins for some
checks which produce one output line like:

check test OK = host a<BR>host b<BR>host c<BR>host d<BR>

The Nagios-GUI interpret the HTML-Tag and show your multiple lines if the
corresponding switch in cgi.cfg
is set. (escape_html=0)
In my case are round about 15 lines possible.

best regards
Thomas
