Hi Ryan,

thanks for your replay,

Yes, we have a test environment with Nagios V3.0.b3 on a FreeBSD 7.2 
StABLE Box, which is our Failover Installation.

nagios-failover# pkg_info | grep -i nagio
nagios-3.0.b3       Extremely powerful network monitoring system
nagios-plugins-1.4.9_1,1 Plugins for Nagios
nagios-radauth-plugin-1.00_1 Nagios plugin for checking radius server
nrpe-1.9_2          Nagios Remote Plugin Executor

Tomorrow (CEST), I'll do a Nagios re-install from the ports to Version 3.0.6

We will see what happens ;-)

Backup: original austrian (NOT Australia) admins DON'T need backups ;-))

Thanks
Richard
