[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#302994: nagios-common: sent mail by default to nagios-admin@loclhost.localdomain - end up on the net

Mon, 4 Apr 2005 00:43:29 +0200

Package: nagios-common
Version: 2:1.3-cvs.20050116-4
Severity: normal

Thank you again for the great improvments in nagios packaging !

contacts.cfg use by default :
nagios-admin@localhost.localdomain
pagenagios-admin@localhost.localdomain

I have reported that localhost.localdomain is not supported by
exim(4) default configuration (is it a debian standard for
localhost, i could not tell) on exim :
http://bugs.debian.org/301559
though in the main time nagios could change to localhost as i
guess other mail transport don't support it and it won't be
fixed for sarge.

The other problem - that nagios-admin and pagenagios are not
defined in the user mta as alias - i  don't know how to solve
automatically may be solved by a note in the README.Debian that
the user have to define them himself (except if a layer already
exists to define them automatically in debian , though i don't
know of any : /etc/aliases is mostly for exim and sendmail
derivatives).

That s great that such tiny configuration issue are the only
remaining glitches.

Regards
Alban
