On 1/4/06, Fernando Lima [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: To list. Is it a good idea to install Nagios through RPM??? It will configure the nagios user, nagios group (with nobody and nagios), etc? Yes, the nagios rpm will create the nagios user, and set up the apache environment for you. You have to add users to the htpasswd setup, or change the auth to suit your environment. I'm of the belief that you should install the software in a manner consistent with your system. If you're a debian user, install the nagios deb files, if you use an rpm based system, install nagios via rpm. This keeps a clean, consistent system, and allows you to track what package owns what files. It's not so much a nagios issue, as a system administration issue. This way when you need to do a software audit of the system to see what's on it, one command will work, rather than doing rpm -qa AND digging through /usr/local/ or other source build/install locations.

It seems like you managed to screw your nagios installation. If I had to guess: you installed the nagios rpm (obviously without knowing you did) and then tried to do some manual installing - destroying vital information, needed by the rpm for a successful uninstall for example. Looks like you have some major problems here, it's kinda hard to remotely solve your problem without access to the machine. There are a myriad of places where you would need to check where you broke the installation. regards sash -- Sascha Runschke Netzwerk Administration IT-Services ABIT AG Robert-Bosch-Str. 1 40668 Meerbusch Tel.:+49 (0) 2150.9153.226 Mobil:+49 (0) 173.5419665 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.abit.net http://www.abit-epos.net - Sicherheitshinweis zur E-Mail Kommunikation / Security note regarding email communication: http://www.abit.net/sicherheitshinweis.html --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
