Hi all
I've just recently installed nagios and am having a problem accessing 
the CGI reports when logged in as the default nagiosadmin user, all the 
CGIs report that I don't have permission to access them.

I've checked the authentication options referred to in FAQ 0048, and 
they all appear OK.  I've also added the nagiosadmin user to all of my 
contact groups.  Everything else appears to work jsut fine: my hosts are 
monitored to a database, and there are no errors in either the Apache or 
the Nagios log files.

This is the apache config I'm using.
<DirectoryMatch /usr/lib/cgi-bin/nagios/>
       Options ExecCGI

       AllowOverride AuthConfig
       Order Allow,Deny
       Allow From All

       AuthName "Nagios Access"
       AuthType Basic
       AuthUserFile /etc/nagios/htpasswd.users
       require valid-user
</DirectoryMatch>

Alias /netsaint /usr/share/nagios/htdocs/
Alias /nagios /usr/share/nagios/htdocs/
<DirectoryMatch /usr/share/nagios/htdocs/>
       Options FollowSymLinks

       AllowOverride AuthConfig
       Order Allow,Deny
       Allow From All

       AuthName "Nagios Access"
       AuthType Basic
       AuthUserFile /etc/nagios/htpasswd.users
       require valid-user
</DirectoryMatch>

Does anyone have any suggestions?
