Red Hat Linux 9
Nagios 1.1

Did you create the "nagios" user as described in the instructions?
Yes

What userid are you executing "/etc/rc.d/init.d/nagios restart" as?  What shell?
root
bash

What is the content of your "/etc/rc.d/init.d/nagios" file?
I did not make any changes to the "nagios" file that was installed with 1.1.
