Problems with Nagios 1.0 on Red Hat 8.0

[Russell Scibetti]

Did you make sure that:

1.  In the installation phase, you ran "make install-mode"
2.  The user that the apache runs as has permissions to write to 
nagios.cmd (usually done by added the "webserver" user to whatever group 
 nagios.cmd is set to)

Just some suggestions of things to double check.
