Nagios 3.1.0 - Update check feature

[Morris, Josh]

To my knowledge all you need to is add the following line into your nagios.cfg file:

	check_for_updates=1

This is all that needs to be done to my knowledge.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios 3.1.0 - Update check feature

In Nagios 3.1.0 there is a new feature:

Added automatic update check functionality - runs once a day to check for new Nagios releases 
Splash screen on web UI now indicates whether a new update is available (requires that update checks are enabled) 

Question - Where do you enable the "update checks" and are there any other steps? for years I have just had a check http check that ran a few times a day and looked for the current version as a string somewhere on the nagios.org page. Worked really well.
