There's no auto discovery in Nagios.

The documentation isn't completely silent actually... You can come a 
long way just by reading http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/toc.html 
just as Marc Powell suggested.

The config files distributed with Ubuntu might have some comments which 
can push you in the right directive.

Google-ing for 'nagios howto' or 'nagios documentation' gives loads of hits.

There are some books you might read... look at

Sander
