The download worked fine for me. :P The file size should be ~1.7MB & its SHA1 hash should be 7b2523de0dacb51b5162dd53fc4c909397800125 according to this page, so you can double check whether something went wrong when you downloaded it.

I don't know if this makes a difference but the directory should just be named 'nagios'. Try running the following commands on your copy and post the output:

Code: Select all

$ sha1sum nagios-3.3.1.tar.gz
$ tar -tzf nagios-3.3.1.tar.gz

Looks like it is making a nagios directory, and not the nagios-3.3.1 dir.
