I like to think I'm relatively competent with Nagios, but I fought with 
nagiosgraph for a while before I ran out of patience and gave up. 
Unfortunately it's been several months since I did this, so I can't 
remember why I hated it so much.  It didn't help that there are multiple 
packages out there named 'nagiosgraph'.  pnp4nagios, otoh, installed 
quickly, easily, and just works.

I'm disappointed that Nagios doesn't have a graphing engine built in. 
It's silly to go to the trouble of setting up checks to build datapoints 
(e.g. ping RTT, memory, disk space) and then throw away data that could 
have great historic value.  Of course, this is a whole 'nother can of 
worms and gets into the "it's only build for one thing" argument.
