Users / Authentication are not as such managed by Nagios core.
We use the Nagios cgis running through Apache, so if we want to see
which user issued a command we look in the Apache log files.

this isn't possible with nagios core. you'd better catch up on your 
application sending the external commands, logging that to somewhere. 
e.g. if you are using the nagios classic ui with the cmd.cgi, you might 
hack that to log the user into a seperate file.
we did hack that in icinga classic and cmd.cgi so that each user and ip 
address are logged into a seperated file (see 
https://dev.icinga.org/issues/1161 for more information). but vanilla 
nagios cgis don't support that - supposingly you'll open a feature 
request (if not already there) on tracker.nagios.org to get that feature 
into nagios too.


kind regards,
michael

You might want to check your values in nagios.cfg:

# INITIAL STATES LOGGING OPTION
# If you want Nagios to log all initial host and service states to
# the main log file (the first time the service or host is checked)
# you can enable this option by setting this value to 1.  If you
# are not using an external application that does long term state
# statistics reporting, you do not need to enable this option.  In
# this case, set the value to 0.

log_initial_states=0



# EXTERNAL COMMANDS LOGGING OPTION
# If you don't want Nagios to log external commands, set this value
# to 0.  If external commands should be logged, set this value to 1.
# Note: This option does not include logging of passive service
# checks - see the option below for controlling whether or not
# passive checks are logged.

log_external_commands=1

[Nagios-users] Nagios Core Log file

2011-08-08 Thread Robert J Molerio 
Hello,

I was told the NAGIOS CORE  logfile  would log any changes made to host
command  execution ie:  External commands:who turned off what and  when.
Upon examination of my logfile it sems that this is not the case.
The log file indicates only that a particular service was enabled or disable
but it does not indiacte the user id that performed the change.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to make this happen?
