Nagios Core 3.2.0
NDO2DB 1.4b9
MySQL 5.0.17
Redhat AS4 U6

I have the dreaded "ndomod: Could not open data sink!" problem. Nagios 
itself is running happily, and I am trying to integrate Nagvis. 

These are my Nagios processes, and socket file

nagios   29946     1  0 10:50 ?        00:00:00 
/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo2db -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg
nagios   29990     1  0 10:50 ?        00:00:08 
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

srwxrwx---  1 nagios nagios 0 Feb 16 12:36 /usr/local/nagios/var/ndo.sock

No Nagios data is going through to the mysql Nagios tables though. They 
are all created, but none have been populated. I've gone through all the 
numerous other posts on this topic, but nothing has worked. 

I can write to my mysql d/b using the db_user/db_pass in ndo2db.cfg. 

This is from my Nagios log (coincidently, I can never get anything written 
to the ndo2db.debug file).

[1266317457] ndomod: Could not open data sink!  I'll keep trying, but some 
output may get lost...
[1266317457] Event broker module '/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o' 
initialized successfully.
[1266321105] ndomod: Still unable to connect to data sink.  32292 items 
lost, 5000 queued items to flush.

The ndo2db.cfg and nagios.cfg are below.

Any help much appreciated.

Regards
Nigel
