Following Daniel’s original post and script on installing Nagios on a plain Debian Netinstall, we made some slight product & security “enhancements”.

1. Updated to use Nagios Core 3.2.0
2. Updated Nagviz to 1.4.2
3. Added SSL enabler and Digest Authentication at the end of the script after doing the initial Nagios install for the Nagios website normally at /nagios

Here’s the modified script with the above list changes incorporated.

For those who just want to enable ssh and digest onto your /nagios directory using plain nagios install (not spinoffs/forks) and default folders, use this small script here.

Thanks Daniel for the script. Makes our lives (the engineers) mucho easier.

Do send feedbacks!
