Yes, and that works.

I have not touched that file.

Yes.

Not yet.

I just got this going.  The last time I used Nagios, there was a
hosts.cfg, services.cfg, etc.  I haven't yet figured out how to add
stuff.  I went into /etc/nagios/objects/windows.cfg and added a host
entry for one Windows server and changed a couple of the services to
refer to it instead of the stock "winserver", but nothing is showing up
in the Nagios UI yet.

I was hoping to find "The Absolute Beginners FAQ"... here's how to add a
host, here's how to add a service.  But the docs at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/toc.html refer to each other in a
circle.  I'm not sure how much reading I'm going to have to do to
discover how to do this.

Does Nagios just read any config file in /etc/nagios/objects/ ?  Should
I just create a /etc/nagios/objects/hosts.cfg?  Is there some other file
that hosts and services and such should be added to?  I think I will
remember enough to get going once I find out how this stuff has changed
between 2.X and 3.X
