Ok, next question. 

I have a machine that I wish to appear on multiple pages.  So I list it
more than once in bb-hosts.

First time, I list it this way:

group-only bbd|bbgen|bbtest|hobbitd|rsync       Hobbit Monitoring Server
123.123.123.123    123.123.123.123 # BBPAGER BBNET BBDISPLAY bbd noconn 
rsync

Then I list it this way:

page game-servers Main Game Server Boxes.
group-except bbd|bbgen|bbtest|hobbitd|rsync
123.123.123.123    123.123.123.123 # ftp !telnet !smtp ssh  ntp  prefer
badconn:1:2:4

(Note: this is just the first server of many that I will need to do that
to.)

Yet, hobbit gives me a yellow box for the bbtest column and displays
this message:

Error output:
Host 123.123.123.123 appears twice in bb-hosts! This may cause strange
results

So how do I go about properly listing a server multiple times?
