Hi Atul

Ok its intalled the rpm .. i did rpm -qa|grep nagios-plugins and the reply was:
nagios-plugins-1.3.0-beta2

I did rpm -qil (filename) and it came back with a list of directories and they are all in the usr/lib/nagios/plugins directory apart from some readmes that are in usr/share/doc/

What was all this about the libexec directory? as its not there.. what do i have to do .. has it gone wrong?

Thanks for you initial reply!

Hi

First check rpm -qa|grep nagios-plugins to see whether its installed or 
not. Most probably it will be installed.
Ur problem is that tripwire has not made entries for newly installed 
files in its database. For this run tripwire again to make its database 
again. I dont remember the exact syntax.
For seeing what files are installed by a particular rpm just do rpm -qil 
nagios-plugins-1.3.0-bets2(this name u can get by rpm -qa).

Atul
