hi

    i have checked httpd.conf file  the entries  are as below and  i gave
"chgrp apache htpasswd.users" perm are below and


httpd.conf

User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
#  . On SCO (ODT 3) use "User nouser" and "Group nogroup".
#  . On HPUX you may not be able to use shared memory as nobody, and the
#    suggested workaround is to create a user www and use that user.
#  NOTE that some kernels refuse to setgid(Group) or semctl(IPC_SET)
#  when the value of (unsigned)Group is above 60000;
#  don't use Group #-1 on these systems!
#

you need to run "chgrp apache htpasswd.users"

I would suggest changing the owner back to root "chown root
htpasswd.users"

All this is contingent on your apache install running as user/group
apache.  Take a look at your httpd.conf file and find what user/group
apache is running with.

I had the same problem.  You need to set the group owner on your
password file to the group for apache.  (In my case, I did a "chown
apache htpasswd.users").  Restart nagios and apache and your set.

hi ,
    thankyou for you response ,  i have checked all the cfg files and
it
looks that all the  entries  are correct. but still i am  not  able to
view
nagios graphics
    ie  ( http://hostname/nagios) the page opens and if  i click any
links
in the Monitoring panel , it  asks for  authentication  ie i think you
have
to  give
    user as nagiosadmin  and password XXXXXX  . but i get  the
following
error

  Authentication required!

This isn't a real-user on your system, just a username/passwd
combination to access the cgi scripts on the Nagios web-pages.
