Hello, I'm a new user of V1.1 of Nagios. I have installed v1.1 on Redhat 9. I am having a problem with the authentication part. When I bring up Mozilla and enter http://cyrebro/nagios/ I recieve:

"Server error! - The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in  a CGI script. Error 500". 

I tested everything after completing the part in the docs titled "Setting up the web interface" and I received the Nagios main screen just fine at that point. The problem didn't start until after I completed the section "Configuring Web Authentication"

Following the docs my http.conf contains:
ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/nagios/sbin/
<Directory /usr/local/nagios/sbin>
 AllowOverride AuthConfig
 order allow,deny
 allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/
<Directory /usr/local/nagios/share>
 AllowOverride AuthConfig
 order allow, deny
 allow from all
</Directory>

I also have a .htaccess file in /usr/local/nagios/sbin and /usr/local/nagios/share which reads:

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

I've run the htpasswd command and added nagiosadmin and another user. Finally my cgi.cfg file contains: use_authentication=1.

I am stuck at this point can someone please help me?
