I have most of the first phase of it working as desired, but the final hurdle to getting it actually used is setting up authentication for the users. Now, in a perfect world, I would as soon not have authentication turned on, but the contractor i have doing the work tells me that Nagios will not work without this. I have a mail machine that all of my users do have accounts on, and I would like to use it as an NIS master to allow the users to re-use their existing credentials to access Nagios, and nagvis. Has anyone gotten this working? Any tips? We seem to be struggling to get this working. At present the machine running Nagios will allow users to log in to it using their NIS credentials, but we are struggling to get Apache to understand how to check NIS for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- One of the main causes of the fall of the roman empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
