Howdi,
We are about to enable non root accounts on our centos server. what affect will this have on nagios @ all?
Or are there any gotcha's we have to watch out for? We have the plain jane nagios setup.

Nagios should already be in sudoers so that should be okay, how are you implementing this, are you just adding users to your server who will be able to su? Are you trying to wrap these users into the nagios or apache group?

how am I supposed to know? you know i wear teh helmet on my small bus....=p
we have a number of admins who use root by default. But we are going to restrict access to root and use su instead.
since we use root for troubleshooting and stuff, I did know if running as non "root". does that make sense?

Yep, that should not cause any issues at all.
