I played with this myself last year.  I'm not an apache master so it took
awhile.  I think this solution is kind of silly, but it actually works really
really well.

In the event that SSL isn't used or HTTP_HOST is not correct, error to the correct URL.

    Alias /nagios /usr/local/nagios/share
    <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share">
        SSLRequireSSL
        SSLRequire (%{HTTP_HOST} == "hpc.usc.edu")
        ErrorDocument 403 https://hpc.usc.edu/nagios/
        Options None
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
