One possible workaround for this host would be to run the following:

Code: Select all

echo "72.14.181.71 assets.nagios.com" >> /etc/hosts
but I suspect you are going to hit other barriers for the same issue as the install progresses

I get this with that command:

-bash: /etc/hosts: Permission denied

Ok it took that command without error. What should that command have done?

That should just make your system report the IP of our server as it's IPv4 version, so now you can try the following, but again, I would suspect you will still have issues

Code: Select all

sudo su
curl https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/installNagiosXIvm_el7_ami.sh | sh

Do you have any other suggestions that I could try?

Have someone familiar with AWS VPC's setup a correct VPC.

Ours are set to the defaults and work perfectly

I used one of my other VPCs and it worked great. There is something wrong with my other one. I appreciate all of your help!
