I have installed nagios successfully on fedora 17. but when I am trying to connect to nagios like http://mylocalhost.com/nagios. It asks for username and password. After putting these information I am found out forbidden 403 error with message , You dont have permission to access /nagios/ on this server.

I am bit confused how to resolve this issue. I read some post. they were saying to create empty index.html inside http root directory. i tried but same error is there.

If I am not wrong http root directory is /var/www/html?

oops ... sorry it was problem with my httpd service which was running actually but not accessible for publicly.

simply I flushed out iptables. then Checked out httpd service whether it is running properly or not.

Now its working great.

I think you create file index.html in /var/www/html. After you can restart service nagios and httpd
