IMO they should not have "nagios3" or "nagios2" in the path names at all, instead...
/etc/nagios/conf.d/contacts.cfg
/etc/nagios/conf.d/extinfo.cfg
This matches up with the paths from nagios-plugins and is the better approach.
Nobody is going to feasibly run nagios2 & nagios3 on the same host, and the nagios-plugins are not using those (version-specific) paths either... so you end up with a mix of /etc/nagios & /etc/nagios3 what sense does that make?
Please go back to using /etc/nagios/ as the configuration base.
I respectfully disagree.
