Hiya,
I see the new nagios core version 4 is out?
I am running centOS 6.5 (x86_64) and have added epel repo to install nagios bugzilla etc. However, a yum update doesnt update the nagios to latest and still runs on version 3.5?

Code: Select all

[root@nagios]# uname -a
Linux nagios 2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 7 23:32:49 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Description : Nagios is a program that will monitor hosts and services on your
            : network.  It has the ability to send email or page alerts when a
            : problem arises and when a problem is resolved.  Nagios is written
            : in C and is designed to run under Linux (and some other *NIX
            : variants) as a background process, intermittently running checks
            : on various services that you specify.
            :
            : The actual service checks are performed by separate "plugin" programs
            : which return the status of the checks to Nagios. The plugins are
            : available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagiosplug.
            :
            : This package provides the core program, web interface, and documentation
            : files for Nagios. Development files are built as a separate package.
Any KBA/how-to would be appreciated,

Core 4 will most likely not be a part of epel 6. You may see it in epel 7 when epel 7 is out of beta.
