How to get nagios to re-authenticate

[Moshe Sharon]

Hello

this is not nagios issue. its apache related to basic authentication method ( 
if you are using standard htpasswd ). there are few ways to do it but it 
involves little programming. you can do it by creating a link logout and then 
in the new page ( php or perl ) changing the header to:
Header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm='NAGIOS REALM'"); 
Header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized"); 

this will reask your password. put the web page in the same dir and refresh 
after it to the nagios files.

you can find more examples on using mod_perl to do it. and some examples with 
php do a web search "apache basic authentication logout".

Hope it helped
