Does anyone know if there are any required RPMs? Thanks, Karen --- Hi Not knowing exactly what distribution you are talking about (I assume RHEL3 or 4, since 4 is the last one to use up2date), you can likely run rpm -qa | grep nag |sort to get a sorted list of the RPMS you currently have related to nagios (not counting whatever custom stuff you do?), and go from there. As it is (to the best of my knowledge?) you must add 3rd party repos to RHEL5 to get the nagios RPMs, however it's been awhile so I may be wrong. As always, update -u of *all* packages could be problematic if it bombs in the middle, (compared to yum anyhow), so I understand your hesitation, but from my knowledge, I would think a large up2date -u would not impact your current nagios, if that is the kind of answer you are looking for... (again, any dependencies would depend on your checks/environment, as always)... Hth, Cheers jamie -- The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!

If you've installed everything, including Nagios, via RPM/yum/up2date, then you should get a warning if upgrading some packages will interfere with Nagios. Assuming you've installed Nagios via RPM/up2date, then you can do: rpm -qa | grep nagios To see what Nagios-related packages you have installed. Then do a: rpm -qR nagios package name to see what packages Nagios requires. That's actually going to show what libraries and binaries are needed by Nagios, not the actual package names.
