No we don't. As a matter of fact, I've tried the Debian package only 
once on a test machine and I don't remember exactly how the layout was 
(probably binaries in /usr/bin, configs in /etc/nagios, and so on).

I use the default installation which puts everything in 
/usr/local/nagios as it is, imo, much easier to maintain, everything 
related to Nagios being at the same place.

One downside might be the configuration of the backup procedure: you 
have to remember to save not only /etc and /var but also 
/usr/local/nagios/etc and /usr/local/nagios/var.

When you deploy Debian Sarge with Nagios 2.5, do you build it in the
'Debain way' ?
That is, does your 2.5 use the same folder location and config location
as earlier Nagios version ?

  From source is the way to go !
 Our production servers use Debian Sarge with 2.5; we deploy 
 Nagios manually. But unless your setup is huge this is not 
 too complicated. 
 Anyway you will have to work quite a lot to upgrade your 
 configuration from 1.x to 2.x, so compiling  installing 
 Nagios will be almost an insignificant task. Use the doc at 
 http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/toc.html, section 'installing'.

[Nagios-users] Ubuntu Server + Nagios 2.5

2006-10-03 Thread Matthew Joyce
Title: Ubuntu Server + Nagios 2.5







I use Nagios 1.3 (mysql) on Debian Sarge, and I thought I would try Ubuntu Server 6.03.


I'd rather hoped Ubuntu would have a Nagios v2.5 package but it doesn't, still 1.3.


Does anyone have instructions to installed v2.5 on either Debian Sarge or Ubuntu Server ?


Thanks
