CGI permissions make me mad also! HELP!!!!

[Marc Powell]

When you are logged in, who does nagios display you are logged in as? If its '?', verify that your .htaccess file in your ~nagios/sbin directory is valid and readable by the web server.

When I try to access the CGI from the link on the nagios web page I am getting the error: 

                                        It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for any of the hosts you requested... 

If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication requirements for accessing this CGI
and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file.



I have been running nagios 1.0 for 5 months on Red Hat 7.3.  I built rpms from the tar balls. 

Everything was working fine.........       Then I upgraded to nagios 1.1, again building the rpms from the tar balls. 

Now I get the    "It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for any of the hosts you requested... " 

Then I down-graded back to nagios 1.0 and I still get the above error!   Even though I am using the same configs from the server that operated for 5 months without any problem! 

I then went to my lab where I now realize I should have started. 

I installed nagios 1.0 on one server and 1.1 on another and moved over all of my configs.     Same results!!! 

Here are the possibe problems I have investigate: 

1.  .htaccess works on the main web page so I have to assume it also works for the CGI directory since I see no error messages for httpd.  I have had our web developer look at my Apache configs to make sure I am not crazy!!  He says my Apache configs are fine.
