Hello,

we're using Nagios as monitoring system for several hundred systems. 
While navigating through hosts and services, recently two questions 
regarding the quick search (in navigation bar) raised:

1/ Why doesn't nagios search for host aliases as well? Is it possible 
to enable alias searching? We're using rather short values for 
host_name, and tend to add information like server position to the 
alias. Thus searching for host_name and alias would be awesome for us.

2/ When searching for IP addresses, only the first match is returned. 
In some cases (e.g. NRPE Port forwarding through firewall), several 
hosts have the same IP address. For these cases it's rather irritating, 
that only the first matching host is returned.

Looking forward to see your answers.

Kind regards,
  jonas
