Hi Team,

I'm trying to monitor Ubuntu using my nagios XI instance and I have followed tyhe below steps as per the document - http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... _Agent.pdf

# add-apt-repository ppa:nagiosinc/ppa
# apt-get update
# apt-get install nagios-agent

at this point I get a message saying

"The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nagios-agent : Depends: nagios-nrpe-server but it is not installable
Depends: nagios-plugins but it is not installable
Depends: nagios-snmp-plugins but it is not going to be installed
Depends: gawk but it is not installable
Recommends: libnagios-plugin-perl but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."

Please suggest

NCPA is the way to go here:

It's a fairly new, cross-platform monitoring agent with some really nice features.
