I am at the point that I can hack on someone elses code, but I don't think I could write anything major. What I've been messing with now was taking someone else code and adapting it to fit my purpose.

Now I have to find those snippets of code so I can finish this User Guide. I'm looking for volunteers to install it and check it for errors.

You da man Raven, that's the snippet of code I was looking for. I wrote down the thread number, but threw the paper away Laughing

I came across this and I need those with CGI to test it. If this works then we have a MUCH simpler solution. Place this line of code in your .htaccess (temporarily replacing the code fix in the above thread)
Code:
RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]

Let me know just ASAP. Thanks!

Do you mean to replace
Code:
<Files admin.php>

   <Limit GET POST PUT>
      require valid-user
   </Limit>
   AuthName "Restricted"
   AuthType Basic
   AuthUserFile REAL_PATH_TO_ID_PASS_FILE
</Files>

with:
Code:
RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]

?

EDIT: When I tried that, NukeSentinel still reports that admin HTTP authentication is not available.

Yes, although there will be more to it in NukeSentinel. Hold off and let me create a test script. I'll post back.

Okay. Save this code to testauth.php. Change the USERNAME and USERPASS to whatever you want to test with. Remove that other code so there is nothing to stop this.
Code:
<?

$username = 'USERNAME';
$userpass = 'USERPASS';
if (!($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']==$username && $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW']==$userpass)) {
   header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=Restricted");
   header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
   die('Authorization is required for this function.');
}
?>

Assuming that did not work, add this line to your .htaccess
Code:
RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
and try it again. If it does not prompt you then just restore this code to .htaccess
Code:
<Files admin.php> 

   <Limit GET POST PUT>
      require valid-user
   </Limit>
   AuthName "Restricted"
   AuthType Basic
   AuthUserFile REAL_PATH_TO_ID_PASS_FILE
</Files>

Let me know.

The testauth.php prompted for user ID and password, both with and without the .htaccess. However, it did not accept the USERNAME and USERPASS. Does the userpass need to be encrypted?

Nope. The protocol encrypts it. Oh well, just thought I'd try what someone else recommended. Thanks for trying.
