nagios, mysql, on debian

[Seth Hollen]

While i have gotten nagios working on redhat based systems before, this
is my first time trying it on debian using apt-get.

root at daedalus:/etc/nagios# nagios nagios.cfg

Nagios 1.1

root at daedalus:/etc/nagios#

I can't find any documentation on using mysql and nagios. can anyone
point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
