I'm using Nagios 3.2 for monitoring about 500 machines.
My users belong to different departments I will give you access services and host for that they contact.
they are in the contacts.cfg file, have been added to a contactgroup.cfg entry, and that contactgroup is added to a host/service.
But this work fine for the hosts , but for the services they have this message :
"It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for any of the hosts you requested" .

have somebody a solution ?
if necessary i can give the description.cfg

Thank"s

I would try double checking the permission in the file /usr/local/nagios/etc/cgi.cfg and check to see if the users are on the list for "authorized_for_all_services." Having someone set up as a contact is different than being an authorized viewer for the cgi's. The core Doc does a better job explaining it than I can.
