'make commandmode' is invalid and seems to have been a typo in this
e-mail. 'make install-commandmode' _is_ a valid command. Are you sure
you did it from the root of the compiled source tree? I don't recall
ever hearing of a failure of that command before.

I would recommend just running 'make install-config' from the compiled
source tree --

make install-config
     - This installs *SAMPLE* config files in /usr/local/nagios/etc
       You'll have to modify these sample files before you can
       use Nagios.  Read the HTML documentation for more info
       on doing this.  Pay particular attention to the docs on
       object configuration files, as they determine what/how
       things get monitored!
