After re-reading the docs and re-installing/compiling/etc., I am still
receiving the following error when running nagios:


L17ADLNX1:/usr/local/nagios/var # /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios
/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg -v

Nagios 2.0b1

Error in configuration file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg' - Line
869 (UNKNOWN VARIABLE)
Nagios 2.0b1 starting... (PID=4175)
Bailing out due to one or more errors encountered in the configuration
files.  Run Nagios from the command line with the -v option to verify
your config before restarting. (PID=4175)
L17ADLNX1:/usr/local/nagios/var #

Here is the nagios.cfg file:

# MAXIMUM EMBEDDED PERL INTERPRETER CALLS
# This value determines how often (if at all) the embedded Perl
# interpreter is reinitialized during runtime.  This is useful
# if you notice that the Perl interpreter is causing slow
# memory leaks over time.  Setting this value to 0 means the
# embedded Perl interpreter will never be reinitialized.  Any
# value > 0 is the number of times the embedded Perl interpreter
# is used (i.e. a Perl plugin is executed) before it is
# reinitialized during runtime.  If you didn't compile Nagios with
# embedded Perl support, this option has no effect.

#my change
max_embedded_perl_calls=0


Line 869 is the  last line (max_embedded_perl_calls=0). When I
re-installed, I did so --enable-embedded-perl whereas I didn't the
first time and it STILL gives me the above error.


What have I done wrong???
