I set Admin HTTP Auth to on, and now I cannot get logged in as Admin. Is there a way to diable this feature and reconfigure with a valid user/pass?

Answer
This would normally use your Superuser (or GOD admin) user name and password. If this does not work, you can edit the database using PHPMyAdmin. Find the table nuke_nsnst_config, then find the field HTTP Auth and set this value to 0 (zero). Log in to your site as admin, go to the Sentinel contol panel. Click on Admin HTTP Auth. This will show the protected admins. Click on your admin name and in this window, you can set a new password for the Admin HTTP Auth.

i that above and this is the results i went to nuke_nsnst_config and there was no field called HTTP Auth the only to feilds are config_name and Config_value i tryed a tottal reinstall of the whole thing and just a sql reinstall what do i doo to fix this

First check to make sure your .staccess has atleast one username:password line in it. The password will be encrypted Smile

Second, if there's no entries in that file remove the code from the .htaccess file and goto the Admin Auth List and make sure each admin has a password set. These passwords are not the same as the passwords used in hte nuke_authors table. Next click the Build CGIAuth file: /PATH/TO/YOUR/.staccess link.

Next reinsert the code into the .htaccess file and try loggin in again and see if that cures your problems.
