Nagios 3.3.1 is out! And the Slackware packages are ready

July 27th, 2011 by Niels Horn in Slackware, nagios

Nagios 3.3.1 was released a few days ago and since it is a program I like a lot, I immediately started working on the updated SlackBuild script.

What is new
The complete ChangeLog for version 3.3.1 can be found here. Basically, it contains several improvements and bug-fixes "under the hood", but it also has some new enhancements "on the outside":

• A new and refreshing "exfoliation" theme
• The documentation link now goes to the on-line docs, always showing the newest information
• The "home" page shows links to current events from Nagios

What it looks like
Well, here are just two simple screenshots from Nagios running on my home network…

This is the new "home" screen of Nagios:

And this is the new "Tactical overview" (yes, I have 13 hosts at home):

Where to get it
As always, the new script has been submitted to SlackBuilds.org and the pre-built packages are available on my site.
