Do you get a 404, a "whoops", or a "sorry dave..."?

Code: Select all

service httpd restart

Yes, the command used to restart apache would be:

Code: Select all

service httpd restart
This should return:

Code: Select all

Stopping httpd:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting httpd:                                            [  OK  ]

Are you able to log into the web interface now? Be sure you are trying to connect to the correct IP. From your command line run:

Code: Select all

ifconfig
And use the

Code: Select all

inet addr:
as the IP for your nagios server.

Run the following commands in terminal and show us the output:

Code: Select all

ifconfig
iptables -L -n
sestatus
Also, open a web browser, and type in the address bar:

Code: Select all

http://<your_nagios_server_IP_address>/nagiosxi
and post a screenshot of what you see.
