Yes, you'd need a mon.cgi.cf and a htaccess (or equivalent) file to regulate access properly in this case. But at least if you use LDAP, you don't have 2 separate user DB's. I agree, this is a complex and hackish solution for the problem you are facing. My feeling at the time was that it wasn't something many people were asking for and probably wouldn't use, and I thought it would complicate the average users' setup, probably needlessly. I'm sure adding access control for hostgroups inside mon wouldn't be too hard. I still think the configuration aspect would be challenging though. > BTW, did my "failures only" patch make it into your mainstream?
