Help Nagios

[Joe Petrucci]

I run into this problem a lot in other area's (not in Nagios becauseI am
just learning). I do not mind answering questions when it appears that
the person is trying, but as in the last case even though I tried to
point him in the write direction the answer is right in the manuals, so
please read the manuals
