You should not edit these files directly. All that information is passed
to nagios via the resource.cfg and cgi.cfg files. Assuming you have
compiled in the appropriate DB support that you want, it's simply a
matter of using the correct directives in the configuration files. Look
in contrib/database (per the documentation) for the scripts to create
the necessary tables.

Nagios specific docs are at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xdata-db.html.
