No, you are making this far more complicated than it needs to be.

One nagios.cfg, one cgi.cfg, one webspace, one ScriptAlias, one Alias. You 
don't need all this extra stuff.

When a user logs into apache, the account that they use to login will be 
matched to a contact in your contacts.cfg. What that person will see is 
determined by which hosts/hostgroups/services use the contactgroup that 
this contact is a member of.

In general, don't put any contacts besides maybe a "superuser" in the 
cgi.cfg "authorized_for_..." lines.

Read - very carefully, as many times as necessary - the section in the docs 
called "Configuring Authentication for the CGIs". Make sure you understand 
the "definitions" section near the top.
