Hey folks,
OK. With some help from a friend, and some divine intervention,
I've figured out the static thing. Upon further thought, I think it's
going to be smoother to run the daemon in userland, and just build
the CGI's statically. The CGI's bulk up quite a bit when built
statically (to be expected), be warned.
The first patch I've worked out, for OpenBSD 3.2 and its
chroot'ed Apache, is the following:
http://www.bennyvision.com/projects/nag ... v0.1.patch
Do the './configure --your-options-here' dance, and then
copy the patch into the directory Nagios unpacked into. A quick
'patch < nagios-1.0b5-static-cgi-v0.1.patch', and 'make all'. The
CGI's should all build statically, providing you've installed libgd,
libpng, and libjpeg. It's really a silly little patch, but it works,
and I learned a few things.
More patches to follow... Please, any input is very welcome -
I'm not a developer, so if I'm making any stoopid mistakes, I would
really appreciate a heads-up.
Thanks!
Benny
