If the directory existed, it would be... well, /home/nagios. Sounds like you have a Nagios user created with a nonexistant home directory. This would be broken at the system level, not in your Nagios configuration. Normally, though, this wouldn't be fatal. Check you Nagios logs to see why it won't start. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
