Separate NAG from Web Interface

Any solution you might be able to devise would take away from the speed that
the status.log is updated therefore, I would urge you to run httpd on the
server that runs nagios.

If you didn't mind delayed statistics/updates in general and a lot of hard
work, you could create a duplicate copy of the status.log and anything else
needed every minute or so and copy it over to the server running the web
interface, then copy any commands made on the web interface back using a
modified form of nsca or something.

I really wouldn't recommend. From what I know, Nagios is meant to be run on
the system that also runs the webserver.
