nagios setup on debian

Well I just got finished installing nagios on debian. This was my second attempt as I couldn't find a good document on the install. Basically there is a package that will install everything for you. just type apt-get install nagios3

Now after that was done I had a little trouble finding the correct folders. basically here is the breakdown on the folders.

/etc/nagios3 - config files also in /etc/nagios3/conf.d

/usr/share/nagios3 - htdocs, images, etc..

/etc/nagios-plugins - plugin directory

/var/lib/nagios3 - command directories

/usr/lib/nagios/plugins - check command files (can put custom perl scripts here)

I'm pretty sure those are the major folders used.
