not authorized, config seems ok.

[Ingo Claro]

In Linux, compiled from scratch following the manual instructions.

But I "solved" the problem.

I had the following .htaccess:
AuthUserFile /path to passwords 
AuthGroupFile /dev/null  
AuthName Nagios
AuthType Basic  
<Limit GET>  
require user aaaaa
require user bbbbbb
require user miclaro
</Limit>

So I could use the same passwords I already have.

If I change it to the recommended .htaccess:
AuthUserFile /path to passwords 
AuthName Nagios
AuthType Basic  
require valid-user

it works!. But now everybody has access to nagios, To limit it to a few
logins I have to make another passwords file?


Regards
Ingo
