What does your .htaccess file in /usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin look like?
Here's an example:
AuthName "Nagios"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/nagios/htpasswd.nagios
require valid-user
Same goes for /usr/local/www/nagios.
You need to actually set up the AuthUserFile using htpasswd (part of 
apache).
 From your httpd.conf
# Nagios
ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin
<Directory "/usr/local/www/nagios/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
Alias /nagios /usr/local/www/nagios
<Directory "/usr/local/www/nagios">
    Options None
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
