Great! I've always had nagios in /usr/local. And is also documented
in our installation documents. So, I (or we) prefer to have nagios
in /usr/local.

Which non-standard way? Oh, with regard to other tools... Or the docs
on nagios.org... And because there's more work involved (where is this
or that file located?), we keep nagios in a central place.

That guy needs to read our docs first... :-))). And when I store everything
in /usr/local/nagios, I don't have to hunt anything... ;-))

Just my $0,10, cu l8r, Edgar.

PS And /opt would be a suitable location also.
