Read up on the notes_url attribute of hosts and services :), you can
easily set that up to jump a user from Nagios to PNP or Cacti .. that
might be the way to go for you .. have users log into Nagios, then
just provide links into Cacti / PNP from Nagios using the notes_url.

If Cacti is installed on an Intranet / trusted network, then you can
allow the guest user to have read all access so that when users jump
from Nagios to Cacti they will not be redirected to the Cacti login
page .. that is how I used to integrate the two from an web
perspective before I started on Cacinda.  Cacinda does provide a
unified view but the additional work to maintain yet another piece of
software just to have a Cacti/Nagios view might not honestly be worth
it for you.
