You don't have permission to access /nagios on this server.

Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat) Server at xx.x.x.xxx Port 80

and

[error] [client xx.xxx.xx.xxx] (13)Permission denied: access to /nagios denied

Okay solve it...not sure how did a lot of permission given as well as manipulating ipconfig file but something did it

give 755 permission to /home/me
add nagios:506:nagios,apache
add nagcmd:510:nagios,apache

and then it change to 500 error which I change nagios.conf overide to Indexes and it worked
