nagios and selinux?

[Petersen, Mark]

Can you move the cgi's (or possibly hardlink them) to someplace that
apache will let them run (say /var/www/nagios2/cgi-bin)?  Otherwise you
might need some sort of a compile option to just install them there.
Someone more familiar with the build process might be able to help here.

There's also ways to hack apache (may require recompile) to allow this,
but I'm under the impression from these two posts that SELinux would
disallow those changes to take effect?

Subject: [Nagios-users] nagios and selinux?

What's the proper way to configure nagios and selinux to work
together?  I've run into the same problem as described here:

 
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-September/msg02007.html

Setting selinux to permissive got my test nagios going.  But, now I
need to migrate to a production system with selinux set to enforcing
and type set to targeted.  Thanks for any tips.
