I am trying to do cgi operations on a server without authentication 
(yes, on purpose, it is physically cross-connected to a front-end server
and accessed via proxypass, no security lectures please). in nagios.cfg, 
I have set a default user, but I am still getting this error :


And I am getting  this error :


	

Sorry Dave, I can't let you do that...

It seems that you have chosen to not use the authentication 
functionality of the CGIs.

I don't want to be personally responsible for what may happen as a 
result of allowing unauthorized users to issue commands to Nagios,so 
you'll have to disable this safeguard if you are really stubborn and 
want to invite trouble.

*Read the section on CGI authentication in the HTML documentation to 
learn how you can enable authentication and why you should want to.
