If this is something you're seeing when checking a site using the
check_http plugin, you need to configure the web server on that machine
not to require AUTH when the request comes from the nagios machine. How
this is done is different for each web server.

Alternately, you could pass the auth info as part of the request by
check_http. See 'check_http --help'.
