Hi,

I'm running an Opteron 64 bit server, and in an effort to re-join it to my
nagios monitoring, I have tried the install nagios via Yum.

When I type:

yum install nagios, or nagios-nrpe, or nagios-plugins, I get:

"Nothing to do". as output.

In wanting to add the DAG repository to my machine, the documentation i've
come across seems vague.

Can someone advise me on either of these issues?

I have come across the following HOWTO, but it kind of jumps around a bit,
and the if/else logic is too hard to decipher.

Any help is most appreciated...

I apologize for my how-to not being very detailed about setting up Dag's repo, but it was intentionally geared toward Nagios, not Dag. I simply create a dag.repo file which looks like:

[dag]
name=Dag RPM Repository For Red Hat Enterprise Linux
baseurl=http://dag.atrpms.net/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/
        http://dag.freshrpms.net/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/

http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/freshrpms/pub/dag/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
        http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1

I don't believe this is the preferred way to load Dag's packages, however, thus the reason I mention to refer to the documentation for Dag in the how-to.

I believe Dag's how-to for setting up access to his repo is to use apt-get. So you install things this way, then substitute the "apt-get" command for yum.
