Post subject:  [Solved] Odd Authorization problem in Mythweb
I've just installed the most recent version of Knoppmyth and everything went very smoothly, which im very happy about, however when I tried to get access to mythweb it asks me for the username and password, which I type in, however it doesnt like it, I then try to get to the root of the webserver and it asks me for a password again, infact no matter where I try and get access to the server it asks me for a password.


Is there anyway to turn this off as its on a local network without access to the Internet

sorry, fixed it by removing the authorization in apache.conf
from
Code:
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
<Directory />
     AuthType           Digest
     AuthName           "MythTV"
     AuthUserFile       /etc/htdigest
     Require            valid-user
     BrowserMatch       "MSIE"      AuthDigestEnableQueryStringHack=On
</Directory>

to
Code:
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
<Directory />
#     AuthType           Digest
#     AuthName           "MythTV"
#     AuthUserFile       /etc/htdigest
#     Require            valid-user
#     BrowserMatch       "MSIE"      AuthDigestEnableQueryStringHack=On
</Directory>

Thanks for this info.

A big disclaimer should be attached though in that you must be careful to ensure that your Myth box is not exposed to the Internet as implementing this solution will open up your Myth box to possible exploits.
