The configuration is all wrong, so it is not monitoring. My idea for presenting is: a beginner's "how to" with audience participation to go through my files and show what I did wrong. In other words, the theme would be "How NOT to Install Nagios."</font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">So come ready to help Lois get her monitoring working, share your own Nagios experiences, good and bad, and be prepared to ask probing questions.
