Maybe I should add, that these images are just used to display a logo of the monitored device in the overview and in the maps. They are not needed to run nagios/icinga itself. The images contains generic network symbols, vendor logos (I guess almost of them are trademarked), OS logos (trademark/copyright) and even product images (copyright problems). Cheers, Jan.
