Nagios and CGIWrap issue

[James Turnbull]

I've configured Nagios and Apache to work with CGIWrap.  I sym-linked a
/home/nagios/public_html/ directory to the Nagios CGI directory
/usr/local/nagios/sbin.
Everything seems to work and cgiwrap seems to be working but I also use
authentication (Digest authentication) to authenticate my users.  In Nagios
authenticated users are then used to determine what access is granted to the
Nagios web console.  But after installing CGIWrap Nagios seems unable to work
out what user is signed in and hence doesn't correctly authorize users.  In
Nagios this shows up as the signed in user name being replaced with a ?, ie.
instead of the console saying jsmith is signed in it says that ? is signed in.

I am running Red Hat ES 4 with Apache 2.0.52, Nagios 2.0b3 and cgiwrap 3.9.

Happy to provide any further information if this is not detailed enough.

Regards

James Turnbull
