<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share">
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/">
would the missing trailing / char in the "share" statement cause any
problems? no icdea to be honest, and not at work to check.... or maybe its
the extra / char on the "sbin" directory entry.
or maybe the .htaccess file isnt in *BOTH* directories (I notice you only
mention the .htaccess file in the "share" dir.....is there one in the "sbin"
dir?.... been there, done that... far too many times!)

I made a test PHP script test.php and did print "-->" .
$_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'];
I did this on another machine of mine and it functioned perfectly. However
on this one it is returning
nothing. Does anyone know what may keep the environment variable
REMOTE_USER from being
set properly after a successful authentication?

I'm running Suse 7.0
My httpd.conf is set up as follows
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>
my .htaccess in my /usr/local/nagios/share is
AuthName "Nagios Access"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.pwd
require valid-user
My password file seems to be reading right, as when i go to
http://mydomain.com/nagios/index.html
it prompts me for password, and I can successfully authenticate. However,
in the Tactical Monitoring Overview (in the upper left grey box) it shows:
Logged in as ?
My cgi.cfg has
use_authentication=1
And all of the authorized_for_xxxxx are set to the appropriate user.
I am seeing nothing awry in neither my access_log nor my error_log.
I am running apache 1.3.27 and Nagios 1.0 with Nagios Plugins 1.3.0
My Nagios dir structure looks like this:
drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 26 08:57 bin
drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 27 12:49 etc
drwx------ 2 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 27 12:42 libexec
drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 26 09:13 sbin
drwxrwxr-x 8 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 27 12:49 share
drwxrwxr-x 4 nagios nagiocmd 4.0k Mar 27 12:51 var
Where nagiocmd is a group which has both the nagios user and the user my
apache runs as.
My Nagios Share dir:

If I look at any CGI other than tactical overview I get this message
It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for
any of the hosts you requested...
If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication
requirements for accessing this CGI
and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file.
I am not sure what is happening incorrectly in my authentication.
