Andreas,

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my previous post.

So far I have read the documentation section titled "Authentication And Authorization In The CGI's".  I have completed the section describing how to create the htpasswd.users file (htpasswd -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users) and I've created a user account for myself (htpasswd /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users jregular).  I then added my contact information to the contacts.cfg file and added myself to the correct groups in the contactgroups.cfg file.

Having completed that, the problem is while I can only view the hosts to which I am a contact, I am able to see all services.  As for notifications, I am only notified for problems with regards to my host, however, I am notified for all problems related to all services. 

My inbox is filling up very fast and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Joe

Yes. Read the docs and the FAQ, or browse the list archives.
