nagios and nsclient++ wont work

[Niels Jende]

Hi Spook, Hi Assaf!

First of all thanks for your reply. You bith have asked me what I need
that Systray Icon for...well, to be honest I don't need it, but my
Bosses want to have it :-/ So, I have to make sure that the icon is in
the Systray.

By the way is anyone of you both running nagios on debian?

Spook you said, that you do deploy nsclient on several installations
with some sort of a basic/standard setup - ini File...would you mind
to let me have a look at that file...for learning/understanding
purposes?

Thanks a lot to both of you
Regards
Niels

P.S.: Sorry for not quoting, but its hard to do that on a Blackberry :-(
