Hi, I have followed the tutorial on this page to install nagios on CentOS5.1
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-fedora.html I have repeated the whole procedures at least "3" time, but still can't get it to work... Say when I try to enable a notification in the web interface, error always return: Error: Could not open command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd' for update! I know the problem came from permission, so I managed to get this work by: chmod 777 /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd But seems when I restarted the nagios, permission reset, so I am looking for the correct method to set the permission. Below is the information which might be useful: =================== ls -l /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd prw-rw---- 1 nagios nagcmd 0 Jun 8 20:46 /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd id nagios uid=504(nagios) gid=504(nagios) groups=504(nagios),505(nagcmd) cat /etc/group | grep nagcmd nagcmd:x:505:apache,nagios Regards.
