Did you restart apache, after installing nagios?

According to the howto you've followed (I guess you used the one for fedora) the folder is created at /usr/local/nagios
There should be a file nagios.conf in /etc/httpd/conf.d containing among others the following line

Code:

Alias /nagios /usr/local/nagios/share

All you have to do is to restart apache and use http://localhost/nagios to start using it
