You will need to setup httpd authentication to get into the cgi
interface. Standard htpasswd from apache will do the trick.
The cgi needs to authenticate a user and determine whether that user can
see any hosts.
Do a man on htpasswd or search the apache site for how to setup.
Here is how i do it to give you a leg up...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/cgi-bin.conf
#
# "/var/www/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
#
<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from 192.168.1 127.0.0.1
AuthName "System Administration"
AuthType basic
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/security/passwd
Require valid-user
</Directory>
...i don't run any othe cgi's on this server, so for simplicity i setup
the auth in that dir. Depending on your setup you may not want to use
cgi-bin, thus setup another directory.
p.s. there are probably many ways to achieve the same result...
