- Nagios Plugins Quick-and-Dirty Installation Instructions
- --------------------------------------------------------
- 0) If using the CVS tree, you need m4, automake, and autoconf. To
- start out, run:
- # autoconf
- # autoheader
- # automake
- 1) Run the configure script to initialize variables and create a Makefile, etc.
- ./configure --prefix=BASEDIRECTORY --with-nagios-user=SOMEUSER --with-nagios-group=SOMEGROUP --with-cgiurl=SOMEURL
- a) Replace BASEDIRECTORY with the path of the directory under which Nagios
- is installed (default is '/usr/local/nagios')
- b) Replace SOMEUSER with the name of a user on your system that will be
- assigned permissions to the installed plugins (default is 'nagios')
- c) Replace SOMEGRP with the name of a group on your system that will be
- assigned permissions to the installed plugins (default is 'nagios')
- d) Replace CGIURL with the path used to access the Nagios CGIs with
- a web browser (default is '/cgi-bin/nagios')
- 2) Compile the plugins with the following command:
- make all
- 3) Install the compiled plugins and plugin scripts with the following command:
- make install
- NOTE:
- The installation procedure will attempt to place the plugins in a
- 'libexec/' subdirectory in the base directory you specified with
- the --prefix argument to the configure script.
- 4) Verify that your host configuration file (hosts.cfg) for Nagios contains
- the correct paths to the new plugins.
- That's it. If you have any problems or questions, feel free send mail
- to nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net
