| Post subject: | MythWEB default username? |
I have a newly installed Knopmyth R5A22 box. I just tried to access mythweb from another computer and it asks for a username and password. The unix usernames don't work. Is there a default user and password, and if so what is it? As I am behind a firewall, I wouldn't mind turning the web page security off, if that is possible? Also, if I have to use security, what is the correct way to add a new user? I found in the documentation that there is a command called 'htpasswd' which is used to setup password files for it. I have found a couple of different instructions and I am not sure where the password file should be placed, and if there is one already, where it is. Also, do I have to edit the httpd.conf file, or is there a default location it is already looking for passwords. |

You were prompted for the password for the mythtv WEB user during installation of R5A22. The passwords are stored in /etc/apache/basicauth You can change the mythtv user password with this: Code: htpasswd /etc/apache/basicauth mythtv You can also add new users with the same command. If you want to turn off the security there is a script for that. Code: ToggleWebSecurity.sh
Usage: /usr/bin/ToggleWebSecurity.sh -all Toggle security on all Apache pages /usr/bin/ToggleWebSecurity.sh -mythweb Toggle security on MythWeb only |
