multiple instances

[Jan Scholten]

No! Not correct.

As i see no use in that way but you seem to insist on different instances  
try it that way:

Install nagios && configure

compile a second nagios and take care of the piont in the installation  
process:
[quote]
Run the configure script to initialize variables and create a Makefile as  
follows...

./configure --prefix=prefix --with-cgiurl=cgiurl --with-htmurl=htmurl  
--with-nagios-user=someuser --with-nagios-grp=somegroup

Replace prefix with the installation directory that you created in the  
step above (default is /usr/local/nagios)
Replace cgiurl with the actual url you will be using to access the CGIs  
(default is /nagios/cgi-bin). Do NOT append a slash at the end of the url.
Replace htmurl with the actual url you will be using to access the HTML  
for the main interface and documentation (default is /nagios/)
Replace someuser with the name of a user on your system that will be used  
for setting permissions on the installed files (default is nagios)
Replace somegroup with the name of a group on your system that will be  
used for setting permissions on the installed files (default is nagios)
[/quote]

choose different prefixes (and create the different directorys)

afterwards you should have a second nagios in a different directory  
configure this instance as well.. use a different alias in the httpd.conf  
of course and it should work..

What you try to do below is NOT working! (But i don't know wheter my  
approach is better.. but .. i will be quiet now.
