Creating a Default User Alongside Authenticated Users

[Edward Trochim]

I want to setup nagios so that there is one default user that can only  
see host and service information. This user should not require  
authentication (the user shouldn't have to enter a username and  
password). But in addition I want authenticated users that have access  
to everything in nagios. Those users would probably have to specify  
their user name in the url. The security for the default user isn't a  
concern since the nagios web server is behind a firewall.

The reasoning behind this is that I want anyone in the organization to  
be able to see status checks without being prompted for authentication  
(even if its just a username of guest) and have some select users be  
able to administer nagios from the cgis.

Is a configuration like this possible? I've read the documentation on  
authentication and default users but I didn't see anything that helped  
me with this particular setup.
