looks like I'm going to have to shelve this until after the holidays... We're in peak mode now, so this'll have to wait.

Did all those steps you had listed (even removed the files and downloaded again from scratch). I see this is the /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log: [1418766765] Event broker module '/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o' initialized successfully. [1418766765] Error: Module loading failed.
