I'd hate for this to turn into a "use a different tool" day for me, but nagios is a bear and a half to configure. You would be better off using something like puppet or cfengine with a tool like HypericHQ. The free version smacks Nagios around (though it can use its plugins). Other people have had good experience with things like Zabbix or other tools, but I am a big fan of Hyperic.

NAME
nagios_checkdisk_plugin_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nagios_checkdisk_plugin processes DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nagios_checkdisk_plugin processes via flexible mandatory access control. The nagios_checkdisk_plugin processes execute with the nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. For example: ps -eZ | grep nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t ENTRYPOINTS
The nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t SELinux type can be entered via the nagios_checkdisk_plugin_exec_t file type. The default entrypoint paths for the nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t domain are the following: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk, /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk_smb, /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ide_smart, /usr/lib/nagios/plug- ins/check_linux_raid PROCESS TYPES
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux nagios_checkdisk_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to set- up their nagios_checkdisk_plugin processes in as secure a method as possible. The following process types are defined for nagios_checkdisk_plugin: nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t Note: semanage permissive -a nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t can be used to make the process type nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nagios_checkdisk_plugin policy is extremely flexible and has several bool- eans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run nagios_checkdisk_plugin with the tightest access possible. If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by default. setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors, you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default. setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by default. setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default. setsebool -P fips_mode 1 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default. setsebool -P global_ssp 1 FILE CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux nagios_checkdisk_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nagios_checkdisk_plugin processes in as secure a method as possible. STANDARD FILE CONTEXT SELinux defines the file context types for the nagios_checkdisk_plugin, if you wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk. semanage fcontext -a -t nagios_checkdisk_plugin_exec_t '/srv/nagios_checkdisk_plugin/content(/.*)?' restorecon -R -v /srv/mynagios_checkdisk_plugin_content Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. The following file types are defined for nagios_checkdisk_plugin: nagios_checkdisk_plugin_exec_t - Set files with the nagios_checkdisk_plugin_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t domain. Paths: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk, /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk_smb, /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ide_smart, /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_linux_raid Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels. COMMANDS
semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings. semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive. semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules. semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
