If you just want these hosts displayed on two (or more) pages, you
should have *one* place where you define them normally with all of the
various network tests you perform; and all other places you must have
them defined with

    0.0.0.0 host1.foo.com   # noconn

Hobbit will use the first (master) definition for all of the network
tests and other settings; in all of the other places it will
automatically copy the results and displays from the master definition.
