Puppet users - Mar 2011 - about http basic authentication dashboard

Hi,

I am running dashboard 1.1.0rc1 under passenger 3.0.5 and apache 2.2.3
with puppet 2.6.6. Im trying to get urls like this

http://user:password@host

working as suggested in the docs for reporting but atm i did not get
it (401 auth requided). Maybe I am forgetting something?  I use a
common .htpasswd file. Auth type Basic, etc.

Sorry if this has been seen in this mailing-list. I searched for it
but  I could not find it.

Hi,

do you enter this in your browser? I think that should work.

Now if you''re using wget or curl, things may be different. E.g., wget
uses special extra params for authentication.

HTH,

hi,

I tried with the puppet tools and some browsers. I think the first one
is the revelant one . Some browsers could support
this method (ff and epiphany do not support it afaik) . So if it
appears in the docs, i thought maybe it was a lacking apache directive
but i did not
found anything about it.

With wget and such tools there is no problem since they are tools done
to support 401 requests on the command line
(--user --password).

Thanks.
