I am curious to see how the crew here on the mailing list secures their

every IP but only from certain people, therefor I need to use users and
passwords. Our Hobbitmon is viewed via cell phones and computers (IE
and
Firefox) and protected by an HTTP(S) login currently. The problem is
that
with three different Directory statements in httpd.conf, you need to
login
three times every time you restart Firefox.
Also, how many businesses have Hobbitmon wide open for the viewing, such
as
Henrik's demo, if any?
I just found out the nice module Apache2-AuthenMSAD. Very small module,
very
easy to install, very easy to change and adapt. It authenticate the user
against the windows domain, it just tries an ldap connection with the
supplied username and password. This is the authentication part of
apache:
AuthName "Windows domain login"
AuthType Basic
# Authentication method/handler
PerlAuthenHandler Apache2::AuthenMSAD
PerlSetVar MSADDomain WindowsDomain
PerlSetVar MSADServer DomainController
# Require lines can be any of the following -- any user, one of a list
require valid-user
