downtime not working

[Rafael Bandeira da Costa]

Hello

Your webserver user must have write access on /usr/local/nagios/var/rw 
directory.
Have you set up the nagios command group, and added the webserver user 
to that group?

Then you would /chown nagios.nagcmd /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/ and /chmod 
g+x /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/.

Just take a close look to adapt it to your needs (nagios homedir, nagios 
user and nagios command group).
