I'm not a SuSE expert, but a quick Google search suggests you might need to edit the init script to conform to the LSB format:

http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_init_scripts

And as it turns out, we have the SuSE script right on our Exchange! http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pa ... 11/details You will want version 1.2. Let us know how this works out!

Installed 4.1.1 from source on debian, .. same problem; the init script in the Exchange DNW either.

Would anyone have an 'installable' init script for Debian 7.1?

FYI, .. after some experimentation this appears to work:

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: nagios
# Required-Start: $local_fs $syslog $network
# Required-Stop: $local_fs $syslog $network
# Short-Description: Start and Stop Nagios monitoring server
# Description: Nagios is is a service monitoring system
# Default-Start: start
# Default-Stop: stop
### END INIT INFO
