Hi, all.

I've just installed Nagios 3.2.1-2 on GNU/Linux Debian Squeeze 6.0.4 &
it's running fine but I have a permissions problem when trying to
authenticate as the `nagios` user in order in the first instance to read
the docs on the web interface (I get a 403).

I've tried su'ing to root then su'ing to nagios but no luck as I've no
idea what nagio's password is (I set the nagiosadmin password during
installation & that works fine for the web interface but for nothing else).

The only thing I can think of is chown'ing nagios's group to root but am
wary of the consequences.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

  Phil...
