Well, there is one major difference, 12.04 is LTS (long term support), and 12.10 is a preview. The x.04 version of ubuntu are used in production, I have yet to hear anyone deploying x.10 versions into live environments.

The LTS shouldn't really affect me. This server will always be in a Sandbox enviroment for the next few months while testing. Plus it will/should add more credability to my project if I'm using a server which is currently used in production/business.

Progress at last!
So I changed my server to Ubuntu 12.04.1 and tried Tony's guide (which worked great by the way). Now there's positives and negatives.
Code: Select all
/Disk Usage says: DISK OK - Free Space /14101MB (90% inode=96%)
Which i think is normal and correct?
However, the negative side, my CPU usage says the following
Code: Select all
UNKNOWN: Isostat not found or is not executable by the nagios user
Any idea's?

FYI, we added "quantal" to the nagiosinc ppas, so now you can install the linux agent on Ubuntu Server 12.10 as well.
