The final part of the Installation Docs at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/installing.html points you to
directions for configuring Nagios at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/config.html. On that page you'll
find --

"A sample main configuration file is generated automatically when you
run the configure script before compiling the binaries. Look for it
either in the distribution directory or the etc/ subdirectory of your
installation. When you install the sample config files using the make
install-config command, a sample main configuration file will be placed
into your settings directory (usually /usr/local/nagios/etc). The
default name of the main configuration file is nagios.cfg."
