Nobuo,

   If you enable authentication in cgi.cfg (use_authentication=1),
Nagios will automatically limit access to hosts and services that
the user is a contact for.

   So, first you enable authentication as above.

   Then, you either create a new contact group for this user, or
add them to an existing one.  Once they are in a contact group,
you add that contact group to the host or service (the contact_groups
parameter).

   Nagios will take care of all the rest for you.

Benny
