However, I’m curious about what you’ve said about cgi.cfg. The new contact shouldn’t have to be defined here, should it? In cgi.cfg I can define users to be authorized for ALL Host Commands and whatnot, but this is not what I want. By default, shouldn’t anyone listed as a contact for a host be able to view that host?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> Thanks, Garry<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'> From: Valdinger, Stephen (DOV, MSX) [mailto:svalding@doverchem.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 1:13 PM To: Cook, Garry Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] User Cannot View Hosts<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> Are you sure you have the new contact properly defined in cgi.cfg to be able to view/execute commands on the hosts in question?
