hi filip,

i'm not sure how i feel about replacing the standard .html side bar
with the cgi script, but including this cgi would certainly be
a useful feature for nagios. i'm thinking about alternative
methods for including this feature, and these are a few that
come to mind:

- a seperate package, generated by the nagios source package,
  which provides either diversions to override the files provided
  by nagios
- a seperate package, which provides an apache configuration directive
  that aliases side.html -> side.cgi
- providing the cgi as part of nagios-common, but having the side.cgi
  configuration de-activated by default (with commented out lines on
  how to activate it in /etc/nagios/apache.conf). 


i think i like the third option the best, since it doesn't bloat the
package archive or involve any changes to the core nagios stuff.  what
do you think?
