I am having a few problems but will tackle one at a time. First thing ... After compiling Nagios successfully (well that's what it tells me), this is what I get in /usr/local/nagios - [root@richemontdev]> cd /usr/local/nagios/ [root@richemontdev]> ls -al total 12 drwxr-xr-x 6 root other 512 Jul 7 12:30 . drwxr-xr-x 30 root other 1024 Jul 7 09:43 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagios 512 Jul 7 12:29 bin drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagios 512 Jul 7 12:29 sbin drwxrwxr-x 8 nagios nagios 512 Jul 7 12:29 share drwxrwxr-x 3 nagios nagios 512 Jul 7 12:30 var Why is there no etc directory ?? In the documentation, it said I should have the following - Directory Structure And File Locations Change to the root of your Nagios installation directory with the following command... cd /usr/local/nagios You should see five different subdirectories. A brief description of what each directory contains is given in the table below. <table border=4 width=100%> <tr> <td width=19% bgcolor=#cbcbcb>Sub-Directory <td width=80% bgcolor=#cbcbcb>Contents <tr> <td>bin/ <td>Nagios core program <tr> <td>etc/ <td><a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html>Main</a>, <a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html#resource_file>resource</a>, <a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configobject.html>object</a>, and <a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configcgi.html>CGI</a> configuration files should be put here <tr> <td>sbin/ <td><a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/cgis.html>CGIs</a> <tr> <td>share/ <td>HTML files (for web interface and online documentation) <tr> <td>var/ <td>Empty directory for the <a href=http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html#log_file>log file</a></table> Why is this ??
