Nagios with MRTG

[Israel Brewster]

Probably the most straightforward way is to use the notes_url host  
directive to link to the MRTG generated graphs from nagios. Doesn't  
precisely "embed" the graphs in nagios, but at least you can access  
them from the nagios interface with just one click. For my  
installation, I've simply placed a link to the MRTG graphs in the  
nagios sidebar, but while perhaps more work, I would think using the  
notes_url (and optional notes_icon) directives would be a bit nicer.
