Even more hidden when accessing thru Timbuktu (at least from a Windows client) where 
control-click doesn't produce a contextual menu  (seems to activate a cursor locator 
instead).  Works as expected from the console.

John:

The user interface for dependencies is still somewhat hidden.

To enable dependencies for a map, you need to define a "reference 
point". The reference point is the device or network that represents 
the InterMapper machine on the map.  All dependencies are determined 
from the point of view of this "reference point".

To set a reference point for a map, control-click on a device or 
network and choose "Set Reference Point" from the contextual menu that 
appears. You will see a small star appear in the lower left corner of 
this node. Items that are not "reachable" from this reference point 
will appear dimmed.  Note that nodes which are permanently unreachable 
- ie aren't connected at all to the reference point -- do not 
participate in the dependency calculation.
