Nagios Support Forum

I believe the install i'm working with is a default install (more or less) but that resulted in a different local nagiosadmin than the one that is in the corp. ldap (and the gids are not the same.) Since I can't just chown the install dir, I thought i'd have to do a new install with the ldap nagiosa...

Still investigating but I'm guessing I'm going to have to conform to the ldap id's
Will there be any problems if chown the nagios install tree to the new uid gid (and restart the hosts/services)

Our home dir's are auto mounted so i'll have to create (actually modify) the ldap nagios account (the nagios host has a local user set up too so it is a little confusing.) Does the nagios user need a specific UID and default GID ?

no, there is not a home dir (I thought that was already ok'd?), the sudoers looks ok
visudo -c
/etc/sudoers: parsed OK

looks like mostly complaining about the lack of a home but i thought that was established as ok?

no errors from the restart. I sent the profile.zip thanks.

I recently took over our nagios eval and we have it partially configured. The current issue seems to be that the hosts to be monitored don't show up in the webinterface. The monitoring engine shows up on the system status and as not running in the monitoring engine status, and the start doesn’t seem...
