Werk #8055: Change authorization method for host/service groups to loose

Up to now the CMC adopted the behaviour of Nagios when it came to the authorization of seeing host and service groups. Nagios lets a user see a host group only if he is contact for every host in that group. That leads to anomalies, however. Because in the details of a host you can see the group nevertheless and some of the views kind of display a host group, just by printing out the host plus the group it is contained in.

Both in normal Livestatus and with the CMC you can change the behaviour. In CMC this is done with Authorization settings in the global settings.

Note: the new default setting is now loose. If you want back the previous behaviour, please change it back in the global settings.
