We recommend updating the authentication system from apache to htpasswd (so NMIS does authentication instead of Apache). 3 steps need to be taken to change this.
%hash = ( --SNIP-- 'authentication' => { --SNIP-- 'auth_method_1' => 'htpasswd', # <= change this FROM apache TO htpasswd |
Generate new apache configuration (if you have customised yours edit it and remove the auth portions instead of generating a new one)
#backup old config cd/etc/httpd/conf.d/ cp00nmis.conf 00nmis.conf.pre-8.4.6G.bak |
Create new config to replace old config and restart apache
/usr/local/nmis8/bin/nmis.pl type=apache > /etc/httpd/conf.d/00nmis.conf service httpd restart |
