Thanks for your reply, Gerhard,
Good article. Yours was one of the first approaches I took, but I found that the two sets of CGIs both returned the same results, regardless of the config files. This leads me to belive that the CGIs might interface with the running nagios process. I am running the CGIs from the command line to avoid any problems with Apache and vHosts. If you're sure this approach still works, then I can pound on my configurations till I get it, but I suspect that it no longer works with one instance and multiple configurations. Does Configure hard code the configuration paths in the CGIs? - David Schlecht (dschl) ----------------------- This thread is located in the archive at this URL: http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagios-users.34.0.html?&tx_maillisttofaq_pi 1[showUid]=21942 > Hi David, > > i proposed a method some time ago which was successfully adopted by some > people: > http://people.consol.de/~lausser/nagios/more-than-one-nagios.html > > Greetings from Munich, > Gerhard > > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im > > Auftrag von David Schlecht > > Gesendet: Freitag, 15.
