CGI access issues

Mark - 

I know that there are a few sections in either nagios.cfg or cgi.cfg
that define users who are to have access to the CGI interfaces...
Also - make sure that you have the commands file (and permissions) set
up properly.
This (initially empty) file should be <nagios-root>/var/rw/nagios.cmd

Subject: [Nagios-users] CGI access issues


Hi All

I have seen this posted in the list archives, but I can't seem to find a
solution (yet)

I have Nagios v1.0b6 installed on RH Linux 7.3 running apache 1.3.23-14.


The config files have been setup as per instructions, including the
correct host groups and contact details - the auth setup in apache has
been done and seems to work on other pages.

When using the Nagios web interface, extinfo.cgi works fine, however all
other CGI's bring up "it appears as though you do not have permission
to..." etc. when run.

I have run the CGI's from the command line after exporting the
REQUEST_METHOD and REMOTE_USER, and the they work fine - but through a
browser they return the above message. 

Any ideas?

TIA, 

Mark Regensberg
