Amazing to me that in all the months I've been lurking in this list there was no mention of this tidbit until 2/9/06. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/37418 Didn't recall that post when I was replying. Also amazing that this is not mentioned on the nagios.org download page. But the plugins are not included in Extras so if you want to install them via RPM you search pbone.net and find the Dries RPM repository and luckily he has a FC4 RPM posted there for plugins-1.4.1, not the latest but usable. Related question - why does rpmfind.net and pbone.not NOT include the Extras repository? I guess what I'm thinking is that we need a wiki so we can all contribute what we've learned and organize it in a way that's helpful to new and longtime users alike. > > > If you want to install the FC3 rpm on FC4 using YUM - I found that I > > needed to configure my repos.d file for DAG specifying a specific version, > > otherwise yum doesn't find it. > > like this: > > [dag] > > name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core > > baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag > > gpgcheck=1 > > enabled=1 > > > > Replace the "$releasever" with "3" > > > > That's an amazingly bad idea. > Yes it is - only suggested as a temporary workaround to install a package when you can't find the package in a repo for the release you're running. Definitely not recommended to leave it set that way. Thanks, Toby ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
