The cgi.cfg is mainly the same as in Nagios or Icinga but not all values are used. Find a list of used parameters in the following list.
All config values here, except the roles and authentication related can be set in the thruk_local.conf as well.
show_context_help
DEPRECATED: setting this has no effect with Thruk 3.x or later.
Displays an icon with context specific help on most pages.
ex.:
use_authentication
Determines whether to use authentication or not. If enabled, Thruk will use the REMOTE_USER from the apache environment as authenticated user name. So the authentication has to be done by the webserver. Authorization is done by Thruk.
ex.:
use_authentication = 1
use_ssl_authentication
If enabled, the authenticated username is taken from the SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN environment instead of the remote user.
ex.:
use_ssl_authentication = 1
default_user_name
The default user will be used if no username has been provided by the webserver. You don’t have to set a default user.
ex.:
default_user_name = thrukadmin
refresh_rate

ex.:
refresh_rate = 90

roles
There are several roles available through the authorized_for_ options. Each
role can also be assigned with the coresponding contact_group option authorized_contactgroup_for_.
You can use the the * asterix to assign everyone to a certain role.
Starting with Thruk v2.46 you can use full wildcard support and so something like:
authorized_for_admin = *admin
authorized_for_admin
List of usernames who have privileged access to everything. These contacts will receive all other roles except the read_only role.
You may use wildcards here.
ex.:
authorized_for_admin = thrukadmin
Note: For historical reasons, any use which has the authorized_for_system_information and the authorized_for_configuration_information role will also gain the admin role.
This is considered deprecated and might change in the future.
