Glad to be of help...

Just keep in mind that you have now given the webserver full RW access
to /var/log/nagios... From a security perspective, and as I mentioned
before you could start with httpd_sys_content_t context and only give RW
access to the specific log files that need it.  That will take some work
to get right and you could very well end up in the same spot with the
entire dir needing RW access.  Regardless I am happy your up and running.
