Nagios Admin User account

1

I would like to know my nagiosadmin password. I have already forgotton my password but i am the root user of my ubuntu os. Is it safe to sudo htpasswd /etc/nagios3/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin and key in a new password ?

Will my other user accounts be affected? Restart of apache and nagios is required?

Make backup of the file and go to change it

And yes, you need to restart nagios to get new password in charge

Yes, of course. This action will change only the password of this particular user – Romeo Ninov – 2015-05-07T17:29:26.007
