/usr/local/nagios/etc not present after compiling ....

If this helps anyone - 

I'm currently in the process of installing Nagios on FreeBSD 4.9 and
I've been seeing something similar.  I know that the tail end of the
Nagios install script said to run make install-init and make
install-config but  I got the following error messages from both.

myhost# make install-init
make: don't know how to make install-init. Stop

myhost# make install-config
make: don't know how to make install-config. Stop

The description for the "nagios" package said that it included the
plug-ins as a dependency but I'm suspicious because I don't see them
anywhere.  I checked the files and the package was downloaded as a
dependency but they don't seem to have actually been installed and I'm
not sure they were built with the right options.  I'm planning on using
database, LDAP, and SNMP support.  I'm going to try running the plug in
package install manually and see if that doesn't give me what I'm
looking for.  I'll post again and let you know how it goes.

Jimi

    ./configure
    make all
    make install

I think you missed these:

    make install-config
    make install-init

then go grab the plugins and install them too..
