Nagmin setup help

[Misao]

RRD is my only quest in Nagios right now. I installed Nagmin in hopes of
being able to use RRD, but found it not worth the time to figure it out. Not
to mention, the install didn't seem to even try to make use of my existing
Nagios standard install. It would take quite a while to manually transfer
all my hosts/servers from flat file into the Nagmin/MySQL setup.
For now, I may have to pursue another method to get RRD going.

I like NagMIN and use it for my Nagios system.  But that being said, the 
current 2.2 version is not only undocumented but also seems to lack the 
"setup" installer script that 2.1 had.  Which created subdirectories and 
such.

So from what I can tell, you may not even be able to set up NagMIN 
unless you start by installing 2.1 and then upgrade to 2.2.  Even then, 
some of the extras like the RRD graphing are apparently too difficult to 
figure out, for myself and others on the NagMIN email list.

I like the tool, but I think it's too bad the author doesn't at least 
take a little time to make a quick-start guide or something.  And I 
think that means far less people will make use of the author's efforts, 
which is too bad.  (I know he says it's a modified version of the MySQL 
Webmin module, but still...)

I'm not sure if you can find NagMIN 2.1 online, but I still have a copy, 
so let me know if you'd like me to send it to you.

Perhaps us NagMIN users could work together, and create a simple install 
guide?  It seems like it could be pretty damn short...  I, for one, 
would love to know how to get the RRD stuff to work right.
