RTFM or pay someone to do it for you. Nagios is complex, so its 
configuration files are complex. Complexity means special knowledge and 
special knowledge costs money. Pay the money or learn the knowledge. 
Simple as that.

If you have a specific question (i.e. not along the lines of "How can I 
make things work perfectly for me? Please provide working configuration 
and hold my hand all day every day for the rest of my life, since I'm 
too lazy to read documentation and learn something."), I'd be happy to 
answer it for you.
