Sorry, the sed script operated on the wrong file. It should, of course, 
have been resource.cfg.
new patch included

  be sure to make them NOT world readable by issuing something like

+ First, how to do it by hand, then there's a sed script that may help:
+ 
  1) /etc/nagios/resource.cfg
  
  Uncomment and set the following lines to appropriate values, replacing

  At the bottom of this file, you'll find the similar lines commented
  out as were in the previous one.  Do the same here.
  
+ This sed script assumes you have a local database on a standard port
+ with a database/user/password of nagios/nagios/password
+ 
+ sed -i.orig '
+ s/#x\(.\)ddb_database=somedatabase/x\1ddb_database=nagios/;
+ s/#x\(.\)ddb_username=someuser/x\1ddb_username=nagios/;
+ s/#x\(.\)ddb_password=somepassword/x\1ddb_password=password/;
+ ' /etc/nagios/cgi.cfg /etc/nagios/resource.cfg
+ 
+ Then you want the cgi-script and the init.d script to correctly know the
+ status of nagios. You need the check_nagios_db file from
+ /usr/doc/nagios-common/, put it where you like but adjust the pathes in
+ the following examples. I REALLY suggest /etc/nagios/check_nagios_db as
+ the init-script now already looks if it is there and will use it
+ automagically.
+ If you use PostgreSQL you need to change the line
+ my $driver = "mysql"; in the script to
+ my $driver = "Pg";
+ 
+ Make it executable:
+ sudo chmod +x /etc/nagios/check_nagios_db
+ 
+ Now edit the /etc/nagios/cgi.cfg and put a # in front of the line
+ nagios_check_command=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nagios /var/log/nagios/status.log 5 'nagios'
+ 
+ and remove the # in front of the line
+ nagios_check_command=/etc/nagios/check_nagios_db
+ 
+ now start nagios
+ 
  You should now be up and running enough to get started.  You'll still
  need to edit your /etc/nagios/hosts.cfg and other files, but you'll be
  able to see that the default machines in there are now on the web
