Permissions Error

[Robertson, Brown]

Chris, did you ever find out the cause of your permission error? I am
running Red Hat 8.0 and finding the same problem. I have also followed
the faq exactly. .htaccess files look good, httpd.conf edited properly.
Htpasswd.users file is correct. I'm wondering if it might be some
problem with apache under RH 8.0?

 

Anyone else have any ideas?

 

Here's what I have in my httpd.conf:

 

ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/nagios/sbin/

<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/">

            AllowOverride AuthConfig

            Options ExecCGI

            Order allow,deny 

            Allow from all

</Directory>

 

Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/

<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share">

            Options None

            AllowOverride AuthConfig

            Order allow,deny

            Allow from all

</Directory>

 

And in my .htaccess, located in /usr/local/nagios/sbin  and
/usr/local/nagios/share

 

AuthName "Nagios Access"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
require valid-user

 

 

Then I :

 

htpasswd -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users nagios

 

 

 

Still no luck. It will continually request authentication but will never
accept it. 

 

Any ideas?
