[Nagmin-users] NagMIN Question

[Fred Reimers]

Skip,

I have to admit that I haven't tried it, but I believe you already can
set security levels on a user-by-user basis through WebMIN user
permissions.

I haven't really tested this out or changed it.  It has all of the
former MySQL module commands in it.  You can at least change which
databases a user can access.  It's accessed by adding a module
individual to a WebMIN user and then clicking on the Module link in
WebMIN Users.  Take a look at it and let me know if anything here would
be useful or what might be good to have.

Fred

Conversely, using NagMIN to add information for several machines at a
time can be tedious. ;-) My biggest feature request would be to allow
the NagMIN database to be locked (as far as the NagMIN user interface is
concerned). This allows me to dump the database to flat files and make
large-scale changes by safely editing the SQL file.  Right now I just
dump the database, make my edits, then reload the database, all the
while praying that one of the other system engineers doesn't get
adventurous and choose that moment to try NagMIN themselves (so far they
just ask me to make changes).
