Problem with Apan Graphs

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

Hi Marc --

I checked the cgi files and although they are owned by the nagios user and
group, the
permissions on both files are rwxrwxr-x.

The same was also done for the /usr/local/nagios/rrd/<name>.rrd file, with
the result
being the user and group ownership being nagios, and the the permissions
being the 
following: rw-r--r--.

I don't use APAN so I may be way off base but can the apache user read
the files? That seems to me that it might be just as important as the
nagios user being able to read them.
