topic Restricting Access to Central Web Console in Servers - General https://community.hpe.com/t5/servers-general/restricting-access-to-central-web-console/m-p/2770311#M1166 I am trying to restrict access to certain sections of the CWC. I have managed to restrict access to console groups and consoles but I am unable to restrict access to the functions that provide administration abilities.<BR /><BR />I have read a configuration presentation for CWC 2.0 and this mentions the use of .htaccess / .ht_passwd and .ht_group files. Eg.<BR /><BR /><APACHE_ROOT>/hpcwc_docs/hptt/data directory. Add the following lines to this file:<BR />AuthType Basic<BR />AuthName iuCWC Console Data Accessla<BR />AuthGroupFile /opt/apache/security/.ht_group<BR />AuthUserFile /opt/apache/security/.ht_passwd<BR />require group cwcusers<BR /><BR />But the Installation guide for CWC 2.1 does not make any reference to it. I have used the standard template provided by hp for the httpd.conf file to configure apache for use with CWC.<BR /><BR />Has anyone set this kind of restriction on this product.<BR /><BR />I would also apreciate feed back on administrators who have installed the product and find any gotchas.<BR /><BR />Thanks<BR /><BR />Jonathan<BR /><BR /><BR /></APACHE_ROOT> Tue, 23 Jul 2002 13:26:09 GMT Jonathan Walker 2002-07-23T13:26:09Z Restricting Access to Central Web Console https://community.hpe.com/t5/servers-general/restricting-access-to-central-web-console/m-p/2770311#M1166 I am trying to restrict access to certain sections of the CWC.
