Nagios on SuSE 8.1 terminates with Segmentation fault

[Marc Meessen]

Hi...

I installed and configured nagios on my SuSE 8.1. But when I try to start 
nagios it won't work. Then I tried nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg. I did 
not get an error message, only a Segmentation fault. I tired strace nagios 
-v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg, and I think the resulting output indicated that 
the segmentation fault occured prior to opening any configuration file.
Below this message is the output of the strace. Could anyone tell me what 
is happening here, and what I should do to correct this issue?


So long,
	     Marc...
