Do you have plans to add back the username like in the maint.pl?  I would like to see who is disabling tests.

Disabled by: unknown @ some.ip.addr.ess
Reason: WE can't do anything to resolve this issue

The default setup puts the enable/disable on a webpage that is
password-protected, and it then automatically picks up the username you used to login.

If you really want to know who is disabling stuff, perhaps that was
worth considering ?

I suppose I do not know what you mean.  I didn't disable anything.  I have added a password via Apache for the entire Hobbit site when our security people complained.  I cannot say I have see a password request for this specific page.

I will add security for the cgi-secure directory as well, if that is what you mean.  It many evoke some complaining about two passwords for hobbit we will see.

I suppose I do not know how to fix this.  The enable/disable doesn't pick up the login for the Hobbit site and I cannot get apache to ask for a second password on the enable/disable page.  Perhaps I have the apache config wrong?
