No, generally, you have to tell your apache where to look.  I have this
in my /etc/httpd/nagios.conf:

# SAMPLE CONFIG SNIPPETS FOR APACHE WEB SERVER
# Last Modified: 11-26-2005
#
# This file contains examples of entries that need
# to be incorporated into your Apache web server

ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin "/appl/nagios/sbin"


#  SSLRequireSSL
   Options ExecCGI
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
#  Order deny,allow
#  Deny from all
#  Allow from 127.0.0.1
   AuthName "Nagios Access"
   AuthType Basic
   AuthUserFile /appl/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
   Require valid-user


Alias /nagios "/appl/nagios/share"


#  SSLRequireSSL
   Options None
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
#  Order deny,allow
#  Deny from all
#  Allow from 127.0.0.1
   AuthName "Nagios Access"
   AuthType Basic
   AuthUserFile /appl/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
   Require valid-user


and that works, as the brits say, a treat.

Cheers,

Yes. I could be going down the wrong path but, how does the Nagios install know 
what the document root of the webserver is? It would seem to me that there 
should be some reference to nagios in the document root so the webserver know 
where to direct the requests, or does nagios not work that way?

Did you restart apache after you configured the aliases and directory options?

Try using http://localhost/nagios/ 
The trailing slash may be needed

Hello everyone
I have downloaded and installed Nagios per the instructions posted for Fedora. 
Everything "worked" according to the instructions however when I start Nagios 
and try to navigate to http://localhost/nagios I get a 404 error. I suspect My 
webserver is unaware of nagios' exsistance however I am unsure how to begin to 
trouble shoot this problem. Can someone offer some guidance? Thank you.
