Okay.. so it would appear that you've at least got HTTP Auth working properly.
If this CGI can pick up the user you're logging in with, then the Nagios CGI
should be able to as well.

Now I think you can concentrate on the cgi.cfg file itself.  A couple
questions..

What user does Nagios report you being logged in as?  (In the little table
top-right corner of the Tactical Overview) Is it 'rblair', 'guest', '?' or
something else?

Is default_user_name defined?  If so, what is it set to?

What are the authorized_for_* variables set to?
