I'm resending this because I have yet to recv any reply...I don't think my
question is too odd...and I can't believe that everyone else just getting
what they expect from the authenticated cgi displays...Please, read below

the system is RHE2.1 (tho I can't imagine it matters)...
Thanks,
Ron Huff

I've implemented nagios 1.1 and plugins 1.3.1 + Indiana
University plugins...I currently have a small subset of
the eventual network under monitor (~125 devices)...I
recently turned on the CGI authentication/authorization
and found the documentation to to be clear and the process
simple.
However, I find the documentation (in cgi.cfg) to be fuzzy
at best for control thru the cfg variables, and I find I don't
know what to expect.  For example:

I have an authenticated 'user', NOT a contact and in the cfg
file I turn on
	authorized_for_all_services
for this user...nothing else.

When accessing the statusmap.cgi I get no display, which is
what I expect.  When I try 'Status Overview for All Hosts', I get
the msg that I can't have it, which is also expected...then
I go to 'Status Detail for All Hosts', and it shows me everything!!!??!
What gives?!? ...is there more/better documentation on these .cfg
file variable...is this a bug?
Thanks,
Ron Huff (also connecting thru ucdavis.edu)
