You didn't have boutell's GD library and headerfiles installed during 
compile-time.

No. /etc is unix-standard for configuration files.

You've made some seriously non-standard ./configuration run then, and 
you've most likely done it in a fairly dangerous way (if you actually 
mean /etc as opposed to /usr/local/nagios/etc).

You'd better get some help from a unix admin. You seem to have several 
really trivial problems and you don't know where to start. I suggest you 
pay someone to take care of everything for you. Helping you get 
everything up and running would simply take too long when you don't have 
a basic understanding of the underlying operating system.
