Wonder if you could point me in the right direction, recently installed Red Hat 6.2 and looking to deploy nagios 2.0b3 to monitor our company’s servers.
I ran the ./configure and looked as though it completed successfully.
but when I go to ‘make all’ the following error occurs
[size=75][root@monitor base]# make all
gcc -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNSCORE -c -o broker.o broker.c
In file included from …/include/nebmods.h:32,

I am a total *nix newb and not sure if this error is OS related.

*** Configuration summary for nagios 2.0b3 04-03-2005 ***:
My suggestion is to not use the beta nagios. Unless of course, you want lots of little troubles. If you can install 1.2, and you get bored, then try the beta nagios.
