[hobbit] nodisp tag

[Larry Barber]

Sorry, I meant main pageset. The way I use the nodisp tag is like this:

199.134.225.145 FKDEVAEKPHFG83  # testip conn NAME:fkdevaekphfg83
SN:199_134_225 DEV:BAS_DEVELOP,1 nodisp

This way it will not display in the main pageset (where our NOC can see it),
but will display in the SN and DEV pagesets (which are not monitored by our
NOC). Having the same box entered multiple times in the main pageset will
also screw up alternate pagesets, you will get an entry on the alternate
pages for each entry in the main pageset, even if you only tag one of the
main pageset entries.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
