With nagios, are you supposed to define hosts in the cfg files in a folder you have to create called objects? Or is this done through the website through the asset page. 2. Also, I feel like my server is not communicating with my nagios sensor. I was trying to test that by sending a command but I get the “Sorry Dave” error. In regards to that, I had the use_authentication in the cgi.cfg set to 0 just to test if I could send a command and I still got that same error. So how do I set that up securely? What passwords need to match where? This will help me get started with the nagios configuration. If you have any other suggestions or pointers they would be greatly appreciated Thanks a lot,Cory <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"> From: Greg Pangrazio [mailto:<a href="mailto:pangrazi@gmail.com" target="_blank">pangrazi@gmail.com</a>] Sent: Monday, April 04, 2011 5:55 PM To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Configuration Planning</div><div><div></div><div class="h5"> Cory, If you have specific questions about the nagios install on alienvault we may be able to help you.

I have tried picking function by function to install but I cannot get anything working. I would really appreciate someone telling me what I need to work on first so that I can correctly walk through each specific task. My plan is to have one central server which is hosted on a VM. This will not have any sensors, just the framework, server, and the database. I will also have two sensors with 2 network cards a piece. I want one of them to do snort and then I want the other sensor dealing with nagios and ntop.
