Some beginner answers

[Miles O'Neal]

|1. The .cfg files, I assumed, are supposed to be owned by nagios user 
|and group and be chmod 755?

Ours are owned by me (I manage them via RCS),
and are 644 or 444, depending on whether they're
checked out for editing.  There's no reason for
execute permission AFAIK.

|2. For instance, in the hosts.cfg file, am I able to define hosts one 
|after another in the same file as follows:
|
|define hosts{
|info here
|}
|define hosts{
|different host here
|}
|etc...

Yes.
