Can you try the getnagioscfg.c program at http://oss.op5.se/nagios? If 
that picks up everything OK, I'll know how to patch it in Nagios.

Just download it, compile (gcc getnagioscfg.c -o getnagioscfg) and run 
like so;
./getnagioscfg /usr/local/etc/nagios.cfg

If it prints the configuration files that you expect nagios to parse it 
will be fairly simple to make the necessary changes to the nagios core.

Solaris 8 has the DIRENT_D type which is a pre-requisite for Nagios to 
be able to scan directories. getnagioscfg.c uses the st_mode from struct 
stat so it may work where nagios fails.
