It wouldn't do any harm to try!  (assuming you take a backup of your
compiled statusmap binary first).  I don't know 'C' either.

You might find the automap in NagVis ( http://www.nagvis.org/ ) is
easier to use once it is set up.

I would also recommend you try NEXSM  (Nagios EXtended Status Map) but
it looks like the web page for it is no longer accessible.  I'm not
sure if this means it is no longer maintained, or whether it's just a
temporary problem.  Does anyone know what the story is there?
