Seems you've already done this the hard way, but for fedora, I
generally recommend 'yum install nagios'  which eliminates the
headache of building, permissions, adding users, setting up apache,
checking selinux, and just leaves you with setting up your hosts and
services.  Nagios is built and in extras for fedora. You might want to
check it out.
