Welcome to the Ranch

You would do well to edit the title of your thread; it is a bit vague.
I googled and found this. Or try this.

I, too, sometimes have doubts.


Customer surveys are for companies who didn't pay proper attention to begin with.

Can you please explain me the below sentence which is the step 2 of nagios installation.

"Verify whether gcc is installed" & "Verify whether GD is installed".

In many popular distros, nagios is already assembled and ready to run. All that is required is to download the installation packages and install them. You can do that using YUM/RPM on Red Hat/Fedora/CentOS systems and you can do that using synaptic/dpkg on Debian/Ubuntu systems.

You usually won't have to install gcc and build nagios from scratch, unless you intend to customize nagios in some unusual way.
