Hmmm, that is a very interesting situation. Are you using the latest
version of Apache?

 

htpasswd -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin

 

that is the documentation portion for setting up the login interface. It
assumes you have the latest version of apache.

Make sure you have the latest version.

This is the user I created:

/usr/sbin/useradd nagios




passwd nagios









But am never prompted to use that account...

Set up a user for nagios ( I suggest nagiosadmin or something similar)
and add that usr to the nagcmd group.

I'm logged in as root - do not get prompted to log in to the Nagios app.

Do you authenticate to the webserver when you log on to nagios? You may
need to add that user to nagcmd as well using

 

/usr/sbin/useradd -G nagcmd "yourusername"

Restarted OK.. and "Things look okay - No serious problems were detected
during the pre-flight check"

As soon as I click one of the Service Detail link I get the permissions
error...

Oh, shit, haha, yes you will have to restart the apache server for the
change to take effect

Also make sure your changes to any config files don't produce and
ERRORS, warnings are ok, but errors cause nagios not to function 


To restart server :
service httpd restart


check nagios config:
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

Sorry, that didn't do it... do I have to restart the server or
anything like that?
