Mysql Support

[Daniel Wittenberg]

This would probably make it easier to write a web interface to manage it
as well.  I was thinking of writing a webmin plugin to modify the text
files, but creating a DB and pulling the data from there would be
easier.  It would be nice if you could pull the data from IRM or other
asset manager too so you could have all information about a host in one
place.....ummmm...*lots of ideas running around in head*

The conclusion was that yes, these solutions were viable, but instead of *replacing* the Nagios config files, the alternative solutions, once populated, would be used to *create* the Nagios config files.  Nagios would therefore need no direct modifications, Ethan et al wouldn't need to burn any additional midnight oil, and folks such as yourself would be happy campers.
