Package: nagios3-common
Version: 3.0.6-3
Severity: normal

The default service_description in the sample windows.cfg files is:

service_description     NSClient++ Version

This causes a problem with the web interface when trying to load detailed 
information about the check.  The URL for the check is generated as 
follows:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/nagios3/extinfo.cgi?type=2&host=Windows2003&service=NSClient+++Version

The + in the URL represent spaces.  Nagios is misrepresenting +++ as three 
spaces, which leads to a webpage with this error:

        It appears as though you do not have permission to view information for 
this service...

        If you believe this is an error, check the HTTP server authentication 
requirements for accessing this CGI
        and check the authorization options in your CGI configuration file.

Changing the service_description as follows solves the problem:

service_description     NSClient Version

The resulting URL is:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/nagios3/extinfo.cgi?type=2&host=Windows2003&service=NSClient+Version
