service - to monitor or not to monitor

[Gerald Wichmann]

When I try to click on "disable monitoring of this service" to not monitor
one I get this page:
 
Error: Could not open command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd' for
update!
The permissions on the external command file and/or directory may be
incorrect. Read the FAQs on how to setup proper permissions. 
An error occurred while attempting to commit your command for processing.
 
 
Now I know I read some spot in the docs on how to configure this but I can't
find it now. Can't find it in the online FAQ either. Ideally I'd like it so
anyone can view the status of the page but only those I've created admin
accounts for can schedule downtime and enable/disable service checks (i.e.
modify nagios through the GUI). I apologize in advance for even asking this
question as I know it's asked all the time. Just point me to the right page
please :-)
