Nagios Read Only Access

Today I got a task to provided Nagios Read Only Web access to Contact Centres, and Google for a 2 minutes tells that a nice guy Derrick have written a readonly cgi patch for Nagios.

When I tries to patch the Nagios source it give error...

Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n]

Which mean I did have missed something "ChangeLog" between Nagios version 3.0.x to 3.2.x, hey no more manual patching is required if you are running latest version of Nagios, as the Nagios Team have included the patch into the Nagios Core :)

So all one have to do is to add all the users to Nagios cgi.cfg file directive...

authorized_for_read_only=username

That's all, thumb up for Derrick for the nice patch and thanks to Nagios team for including it in the Core.
