(Sorry for the top post)

F18+ includes Apache 2.4, which changed how authentication is performed
without adding special compat modules in. (Pretty annoying if you ask me
:/ )

In the below sections:
> ScriptAlias /xymon-cgi/ "/usr/local/xymon/cgi-bin/"
> <Directory "/usr/local/xymon/cgi-bin">
>     AllowOverride None
>     Options ExecCGI Includes
>     Order allow,deny
>     Allow from all
> </Directory>

Change to read:

ScriptAlias /xymon-cgi/ "/usr/local/xymon/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/usr/local/xymon/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI Includes
    Require all granted
</Directory>



Do that for all the sections and it should work for ya.

HTH,
