You get prompted to log in because you have auth enabled for /share but because of the way htaccess works, that information isn't known outside of the /share directory. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/installweb.html <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin"> Options ExecCGI AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users Require valid-user </Directory> If you were wanting to limit access to cmd.cgi to specific users then you can try something like the following (untested) -- <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin"> Options ExecCGI AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users Require valid-user <Files cmd.cgi> require user bob require user fred </Files> </Directory> -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
