Windows.cfg missing

[Assaf Flatto]

Have you installed from source or package ?

if the package , try looking for the file in the /etc/nagios3/ directory 

If you used source , have you done the make install-configs ( or is may be make install-samples ) ?

Subject: [Nagios-users] Windows.cfg missing

Hi Folks,

as I am still a newbie with nagios but willing to learn, I hope you
wont mind if my upcoming question might sound silly to you.

I read that to monitor windows servers that I should find a
windows.cfg file in ~/objects/

Well I dont have neither a directory called objects nor such a file.
In /usr/share/doc/nagios3-common/examples/template-object/ I found a
windows.cfg file.

So, is it okay for nagios to simply create a directory ~/objects/ and
copy the windows.cfg file in there? Or what do I have to do?

As said before, I am new to nagios and I am running a debian wheetzy
with nagios 3.2.3

Thanks for your time and help
Niels
