Most of them are configuration starting places. Nagios and Icinga and
cacti are all examples of this, where the minimal access to localhost
is enough to get a testable setup started. They're all *working*
examples, and as such need to be in /etc/httpd/conf.d, not hidden
somewhere else waiting for you to deduce a relevant installation.
