*** Sample config file installed *** Remember, these are *SAMPLE* config files. You'll need to read the documentation for more information on how to actually define services, hosts, etc. to fit your particular needs. If you have questions about configuring Nagios properly, please: - Look at the sample config files - Read the HTML documentation - Read the FAQs online at http://www.nagios.org/faqs *BEFORE* you post a question to one of the mailing lists. ********************************************************************** Enable nagios in /etc/rc.conf with the following line: nagios_enable="YES" Configuration templates are available in /usr/local/etc/nagios as *.cfg-sample files. Copy then to *.cfg files where required and edit to suit your needs. Documentation is available in HTML form in /usr/local/www/nagios/docs. If you don't already have a web server running, you will need to install and configure one to finish off your nagios installation. When used with Apache, the following should be sufficient to publish the web component of nagios (modification of allow list encouraged): Order allow,deny Allow from all Options ExecCGI ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin/ Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/www/nagios/ ********************************************************************** Users experiencing troubles with logos used in the Status Map CGI should first check the value of the physical_html_path variable defined in /usr/local/etc/nagios/cgi.cfg. Refer to the example in /usr/local/etc/nagios/cgi.cfg-sample for the correct value. **********************************************************************
