Title: Webserver Authentication?
Post by: bluedevils on December 31, 2004, 11:36:59 am

Hello all,

I can get thttp and apache working easily on the 6000, but I would like password protection on the sites.  What options are there for an SL-C6000?

Maybe another question would be, is there an htpasswd compiled for the zaurus and is there a webserver available to utilize it.  If the answer is no, then the question becomes is there a technical reason why not?

If you REALLY wanted to use the zaurus to do everything, you could definietly compile it. Download the ARM package from Debian is your easiest path though.

Code: [Select]

wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/apache/apache-utils_1.3.33-2_arm.deb
ar x apache-utils_1.3.33-2_arm.deb
tar xzvf data.tar.gzvoilah, pull out the binaries you want from usr/bin

 Or you could use websites such as http://www.psu.edu/dept/cac/publish/htpasswd/htpasswd.html (http://www.psu.edu/dept/cac/publish/htpasswd/htpasswd.html)
