cfg_dir is only valid within nagios.cfg. There can be only one nagios.cfg so that would not be permitted. > My proposed idea (an cfg_dir in a config file within a previously > defined cfg_dir) does not work… But I was curious on workarounds or > other great suggestions from others on ways around this. Reading the code (xdata/xodtemplate.c/ xodtemplate_process_config_dir{}), nagios will only parse files with a '.cfg' extension within the cfg_dir so you may just be able to add a cfg_dir of '/opt' IFF the only files under that with a .cfg extension are nagios config files. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
