So what are my options then? Can I switch over to yum after it's already been installed via tarball?

I would have preferred to do it via yum, but in following the installation guide, I had to build it out with the tarball. Can I download the x-5.8.1.tar.gz and reinstall with the install script that way? Would that be safe?

Does anyone have a checksum list for all of the files bundled in the nagiosxi 5.8.1 release? I'd like to compare mine to them, find any that might be different.

Actually, I think I do still have an issue. As I mentioned before, I have my Nagios server behind an AWS WAF, and I discovered that there were still some attacks going on, most of them failing to get past the WAF. However, when I started up for work this morning, I discovered that there was an attac...

hello, My AWS hosted Nagios server has been attacked a few times now, and I'm not quite sure how to prevent it. I was running 5.7.4 for the last few months (I just now upgraded to 5.8.1). The behavior I'm seeing resembles CVE-2020-15901, but that was supposed to have been closed in 5.7.2. Here's a s...

I don't have any info on the actual upgrade process, but I wanted to point out that CentOS 8 is in dispute with Redhat now... they're cutting it short, and changing it to be their beta test platform, rather than their binary equivalent downstream. Announcement was made in Dec, and caused an immediat...

Hello, I'm just starting to explore using SMS in NagiosXI. I've made sure all of my checks are utilizing the phpMailer, I've done basic configuration on my own account for my cellphone (added number, confirmed text, enabled specific types of alerts). How can I set up SMS to be an escalation method, ...

I'd love to see this functionality implemented; and I can't be the only person who has a need along these lines... I feel like anyone whose company is geographically diverse would benefit. So, yeah, please do submit a feature request. Thanks!
