Question:
Does XyMon team have plans to implement groups/pages protection?
The easiest way to modify the current system is to add some security
checks in the CGI shell-script wrappers, so that they check access based
on
the REMOTE_USER environment-variable that Apache provides when you
require
authentication for a web user.
Almost forgot there is a mechanism for this in place for some of the CGI
scripts in Xymon. See the xymonwebaccess(5) man-page, also available at
http://www.xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/xymonwebaccess.5.html
