cgi auth problems

(i sent this mail yesterday, i wanna just be sure everyone saw it ^^)

Hi guys,

I have a debian sarge with nagios 2.8. Everything works fine, except one
thing: sometimes, without any reasons, i have the following message on the
nagios web pages:

 "It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for
any of the services you requested...

 If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication
requirements for accessing this CGI
and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file."

I checked in the ml or the forums, i saw a lot of complaints about that
(without solutions) or misconfigured nagios, but i'm sure my nagios is
correctly configured.

The auth is set to 1 in the cgi.cfg, and i put a * for the "authorized
people".

/nagios/etc is readable & executable by nagios.www-data. So, even the apache
group could access to the etc directory, where is the cgi.cfg

By the way, is there any way to check the uptime with the nrpe daemon of a
linux node?

Regards,

Ben
