Ah... you need to also setup authentication on the nagios html directory... 
which, if you installed via RPM, should be in /usr/share/nagios. That will 
cause you to get authenticated first thing when you access the nagios main 
page. After that, if things still don't work, make sure your user (nagios in 
this case) has permissions to use commands, etc. as defined in cgi.cfg. 
Also, as Tonni stated, be sure the permissions on your cmd file are correct 
to allow your web server process to write to the file.
