What errors did you get when you tried?

Found on techrepublic.com Nagios on Solaris 8
Quote:
Basic installation is the usual open source method:

unpack into any subdirectory of your home directory. ( NOT ROOT ACCOUNT )
cd into it.
type:
./configure --help
that will list all options nagios recognises for configuring the software during compile. pick the options you want to use.
then type:
./configure [options]
make
su to root account
make install

note: it is ./configure, not /configure or configure. the leading period is important.
once it is installed you have to edit your initscripts to add it to the runlevels you want it to be running in.

editing these scripts must be done as root.

basic configure and make don't need root access.
make install does.

read the man pages for nagios after the make install, that will tell you what you need to do to get the app conficuration settings for running it.

mmd(1)							      General Commands Manual							    mmd(1)

Name
       mmd - make an MSDOS subdirectory

Note of warning
       This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete.  See the
       end of this man page for details.

Description
       The mmd command is used to make an MS-DOS subdirectory. Its syntax is:

       mmd [-D clash_option] msdosdirectory [ msdosdirectories... ]

       Mmd makes a new directory on an MS-DOS file system. An error occurs if the directory already exists.

Viewing the texi doc
       This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only  approximative,  and  some
       items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process.  Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre-
       sentation in the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information has been translated into the manpage version.  Thus I strongly  advise  you
       to use the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

       *      To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

		     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

       *      To generate a html copy,	run:

		     ./configure; make html

       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'

       *      To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

		     ./configure; make info

       The  texinfo  doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
       quoting conventions used in info.
