Hi

I am a new user of Nagios. I installed the Nagios core , Plugins and the 
NRPE addon based on the instructions mentioned in the quick start guide. 
As of the NRPE addon i installed it using the document that was provided 
with the tar file and everything went fine. Similarly i installed the 
NRPE plug in and NRPE daemon on the machine that i wanted to monitor.

On my Nagios box when i issue the following command:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.0.1

my remote host responds with the NRPE version correctly. Also i could 
not see any errors in the cfg file by issuing the command:

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg


Upon re-starting the Nagios service i could see the following:

[root at pc-fedora-1 objects]# service nagios restart
Running configuration check...done.
Stopping nagios: .done.
Starting nagios:su: warning: cannot change directory to 
/var/spool/nagios: No such file or directory
This account is currently not available.
 done.

Upon opening the UI i am still not able to see any hosts added. I have 
also added the command and input service files needed to contact the 
remote host.

Please help.

Thanks
Jatin
