The new/current place for the pnp4nagios organization is https://github.com/pnp4nagios With this particular version residing in https://github.com/pnp4nagios/pnp4nagios

This is a fork of @lingej's original pnp4nagios package.

As a long-time user of pnpnagios, I am trying to give the project a good home as we work to further develop and enhance this project. Please contact me if you would like to help.

The original source was retired on commit 5e09f538373ac4310a13355746bb3d3a10eb7bef (Version pnp-0.6.?? ??/??/2017 on 2022/Jan/16). Many thanks to Joerg Linge and his awesome contributors for what we have, now!

For now, I'm advocating installing from source (my source), as we move forward into further developing this project.

Instructions can be found in this gist.

The old site for documentation at https://docs.pnp4nagios.org is no longer up; the replacement is https://github.com/pnp4nagios/docs It's possible that there are still some references to the old site scattered here and there.

I am a long time Nagios/Icinga/Monitoring/Devops Professional. I've been "the toolsguy" long from "devops" was even a "new" term.

The spec file is in the "ci" subdirectory. Install git-build-rpm (it's on github, surprise!) and, as an example:

HERE=(main directory of this git package; where this README.md file is located) cd $HERE autoconf # builds 'configure' ./configure # builds 'ci/pnp4nagios.spec' git build-rpm --rpm-dir /home/local/lane/rpmbuild --spec ci/pnp4nagios.spec --dist .fc35

The --rpm-dir option is to keep the .srpm file from the build (it will be in your usual SRPMS subdirectory in your rpmbuild tree), the --dist option is to avoid the longwinded "-%{version}-%{release}%{timestamp}.%{dist}..." package name. The rpms will get copied from the rpmbuild tree to $HERE.

You can also just get the source code, do a autoconf ./configure then make all etc....but some of us (me) prefers to have a software package, to organize software installation/update/removal.
