As far as I can tell, I have all the perms set right according to the

<br>
nagios.cfg<br>
<br>
command_file=/var/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd<br>
check_external_commands=1<br>
# NOTE: Setting this value to -1 causes Nagios to check the external<br>
# command file as often as possible. <br>
command_check_interval=-1<br>
<br>
ll /var/nagios/ | grep rw/<br>
drwxrws--- 2 nagios apache 4096 Aug 1 13:28 rw/<br>

ll /var/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd<br>
prw-rw---- 1 nagios apache 0 Aug 1 13:28 /var/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd| <br>
<br>
The apache process is run by the apache user, a member of the apache
group, so has full perms to the directory and the pipe file nagios.cmd.
Nagios is run by nagios who is also a member of the apache group.<br>
<br>
This all looks as it should be according to the docs as far as I can

I think quite a lot of people have trouble with this but a lot give up
or are satisfied that the main bit is working and don't bother with
this... <br>
<br>
does anybody have this working and if so could you post your configs so
I can see anything you have different to me?<br>
<br>
are external commands generally broken or is there something missing in
the docs/our configs/our brains? <br>
<br>
I'm using Version 1.4.1<br>

I'm still scratching my head on this, I can go to the scheduling queue
and disable checks, the command is processed and applied successfully.
However I still cannot enter a host/service comment or schedule
downtime without getting the not authorized, return from whence you
came message...<br>
<br>
I am logged in as nagiosadmin, here is my .htacccess file which is in
both my nagios/share and nagios/sbin directories:<br>

AuthType Basic<br>
AuthUserFile /etc/nagios/htpasswd.users<br>

I have repeatedly gone over the docs so this should work, I'm at a
complete loss by this point.<br>
