hey

    I'm trying to install nagios-1.4.1 and nagios-plugins-1.4.3 on Fedora 3. 
    Well, to make things easy i followed the steps (to install) as on : http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2002/09/05/nagios.html
    and (part 2) :  http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2002/09/26/nagios.html
    I have made changes to the configuration files as explained in part 2.
    But, when i try to fire up nagios, i get the following error:


  [root at thames etc]# service nagios restart
Running configuration check...

Reading configuration data...

Error: Invalid host object directive '#'.

Error: Could not add object property in file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/hosts.cfg' on line 3.


***> One or more problems was encountered while processing the config files...

     Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
     directives and data defintions.  If you are upgrading from a previous
     version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
     may have been removed or modified in this version.  Make sure to read
     the HTML documentation on the main and host config files, as well as the
     'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.
