Setting up guest user for nagios

Hi.


I need to configure a guest account so that anyone in the organization
interested in monitoring can log into our Nagios web interface.

Setting up the guest user account is a matter of adding the guest user to
the required lines in "cgi.bin". What is the recommended practice here? I
were thinking I'd add "guest" to each of these lines, but I'm not sure if
these leaves the guest user with too much privileges:


   - authorized_for_system_information=usernagios
   - authorized_for_configuration_information=usernagios
   - authorized_for_system_commands=usernagios
   - authorized_for_all_services=usernagios
   - authorized_for_all_hosts=usernagios

Does anyone have any recommendations on this?


Regards,
Kenneth
