Re: [Nagios-users] Advanced authentication
Thanks for the replies.
Ultimately what we would like to do is authenticate the user via another
website that we already use as a single sign-on portal for other web
applications. Once they're logged in there, we would pass their username
over to Nagios via URL querystring or hidden form value, etc (not going for
maximum security). On the Nagios server we would use PHP to populate the
REMOTE_USER Apache ENV variable with the passed username so that Nagios can
compare that to the contacts and provide them with their applicable views.
Currently we are able to pass the username value to the Nagios server and we
appear to be populating the Apache ENV variable successfully via PHP using
apache_setenv('REMOTE_USER', '[username]'); however when we then redirect
to the Nagios homepage, Nagios does not appear to be picking up the
username. It states that we're logged in as ? and obviously nothing is
accessible.
Questions:
Is it necessary to modify the Nagios/cgi config in any way to achieve what
we're doing?
Is is necessary to modify the Apache config?
Is is necessary to set any other ENV variables besides REMOTE_USER?
Thanks for any assistance/guidance you can provide!
Dustin

[Nagios-users] Advanced authentication
Sorry if this has already been asked but I¹m new to the list. Question: Is there an add-on or other method for enabling more advanced authentication for Nagios or is htaccess the only method? I¹m thinking something more like a MySQL database or LDAP, etc. Thanks, Dustin E-MAIL CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: The contents of this e-mail message and any attachments are intended solely for the addressee(s) and may contain confidential and/or legally privileged information.

[Nagios-users] Nagios notifications
Hi -- I apologize in advance as this question is difficult to type without running around in circles but here goes: We¹re having trouble configuring Nagios service notifications to go to specific contacts for specific hosts. For instance, we have contact1 who is a member of contactgroup1. We have host1 who also has a contact group of contactgroup1. That association is working. However, we have service1 which runs on host1, host2, and host3, and has contact groups contactgroup1 and contactgroup2. Whenever host2, which is not associated with contact1 has a notification for this service, contact1 is receiving the notification. How do we limit notifications for service1 to only go to contact1 if the host having trouble is host1?

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios notifications
Thanks for the reply but I don¹t know that that would help us. The problem isn¹t that we cant select individual contacts. The problem is our contacts are getting service notifications for hosts that aren¹t assigned to any of their associated contact groups. Our scenario: ³contact1² is assigned to ³contactgroup1² ³host1² is assigned to ³contactgroup1² ³service1² is assigned to run on ³host1², ³host2², and ³host3² and is assigned to ³contactgroup1² (note: ³host2² and ³host3² are not assigned to ³contactgroup1² are are not otherwise associated to ³contact1²) In this scenario, why does contact1 get service notifications for host2 and host3? Sorry if I¹m making this explanation more complicated than necessary.
