building nagios host to monitor websensors

I've been wanting to log data from the esensors networked temperature and humidity sensors for quite a while, and wanted to be able to present that data as a view that my users can easily get at.

This article on integration of Nagios, MRTG, and the eSensors unit looks very interesting. It was written in 2004, but should still be relevant with my unit.

I have never completed a Nagios installation before, so this should be interesting.
