After using this new port over the weekend I have some more opinions:

This will make the fping probe not work by default since fping needs to be 
either suid root or run by root to work. The default probe should work out of 
the box, imho.

The config file sets the pid dir to /var/run/smokeping. That's not a good idea 
since /var/run gets wiped on boot and the smokeping dir wont exist.

basepage.html and smokemail are both in /usr/local/share/examples/smokeping 
and in /etc/smokeping. The config file uses the ones in /usr/local. Either 
dont put them in /etc or make the config file use /etc.
