We had kind of the same problem that we solved by generating a second set of pages. The default set is complete and intended to the admin group while the second -prefixed- is for the helpdesk team.Each team then access Xymon with a different URL: admin: http://example.com/xymon helpdesk: http://example.com/hk-xymonFor this to work you need to run bbgen on different bb-hosts or -what we did- organize bb-hosts to be able to run bbgen on a subset of the hosts. On this subset you can then ignore (bbgen --bb2-ignorecolumns) all tests that you do not want to make appear on bb2.html. (we do not show any local checks). For not interfering with the default set we also created the needed set of prefixed config., cgis, gifs, and menus dirs/files. (helpdesk team see only a subset of menus).Dominique On 07/ 8/10 02:53 AM, Maik Heinelt wrote:Well, that's what I said. I already use mod_auth_mysql to ahndle with user logins, but could you please explain, how to manage the all non-green function just for one folder? This would be a nice feature, to make it possible, a user can see only all non-green machines for his folder. I had the menu on Xymon only visible for local, just to avoid, a standard user can click on the "Show all non-green" link in there.

What I mean by that is, that Apache alone can make your life very simple with mod_auth_ldap, mod_auth_mysql, etc. A few directives, point at the right database, and voila! There are plenty of GUI clients already out there, and there are plenty of cool ways to handle User access/management, that I'd rather the dev team work on making Xymon do what it does best *even better*, and that's monitoring things. Maybe that can be in the roadmap at some point, but I'm just not sure I agree very strongly with you that this would be as pressing a need as some other things in the project.I'm willing to be shouted down on that, by the way. Just my two cents...--J On Jul 7, 2010, at 7:26 PM, Maik Heinelt wrote:As we are talking about new features/function for Xymon, I would like to bring in one more idea. Cause we are monitoring several server from my companies costumer, we have set several user for our costumer, to see their server status. For this, we just use a simple .htaccess connected with a MySQL db. It would be very handy, if there would be such a user/permission management in Xymon as default. Just to setup a new user and select the view/folder/sub-folder, where the user has permissions to.
