Not sure where you found those instructions, but we recommend that plugins be installed from source and not a package. You can find them here - https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.p ... ategory=58 (scroll down to 'Installing the Nagios Plugins')

Yes, you'll need to install whatever agent you plan to have execute the plugins as well. Just follow the directions mentioned above and you'll be set, you only need to follow the Plugin related part.

Are you using Log Server or XI (or maybe core)? Could you send us a screenshot of basically any page of the UI?

Let's assume you are using XI. Can you PM me your Profile? You can download it by going to Admin > System Config > System Profile and click the Download Profile (not Show Profile) button in the top right corner. If for whatever reason you cannot download the profile, please put the output of Show Profile in the thread (that will at least get us some info).

After you PM the profile, please update this thread. Updating this thread is the only way for it to show back up on our dashboard.

SELINUX is permissive

I use command line with putty tool only, no graphical interface.
Perhaps could i re-launch ????? then give you lines on screen ?
Putty buffer d'ont keep all log of screen

I make commands with sudo

cd /tmp/nagios-plugins-release-2.1.3/
sudo ./tools/setup
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install

My computer is not a nagios server is only client
Regards
