Excuse my disbelief, but with unixoide operating systems I still think
that if you do something right, it will work.
Could you please post the output of:

ls -ld /usr/local/nagios/var/rw  

ps -ef | grep httpd

grep <user obtained from previous command> /etc/group


Please try to avoid mailing in HTML. At least on this list.
