5. Apache User Access Authentication
5-2 January 2002 7800-A2-GB32-00
Configuring HTTP Challenge/Response
Follow this procedure to configure HTTP Challenge/Response for OpenLane
access authentication with the Apache Web server.
Procedure
1. If OpenLane is running, stop it.
2. Find the directory where Apache is installed. This is the directory where the
file named apache (on Solaris) or apache.exe (on Windows) resides.
3. In a command line window, change to the Apache directory with the cd
command. For example:
cd /opt/apache (Solaris)
cd \opt\apache (Windows)
4. Under the /opt/apache/conf (or C:\opt\apache\conf) directory, open the file
called httpd.conf . If the Apache configuration files were installed with
OpenLane, then the text referred to below is commented out in the httpd.conf
file.
Uncomment the text and make sure the AuthUserFile parameter
(ordinarily /opt/pdn/OpenLane/database/config/ in Solaris and
C:\opt\pdn\OpenLane\database\config\ in Windows) is correct. If the Apache
configuration files were installed during an OpenLane installation,
AuthUserFile is already set.
<Location "/OLServlets/*">
order allow,deny
allow from all
AuthType Basic
AuthName "OpenLane"
AuthUserFile /opt/pdn/OpenLane/database/config/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</Location>
In this case, forward slashes should be used in the directory name for both
Solaris and Windows.
If the commented text is not found, add the text as shown to the bottom of the
file, specifying the location of the
.htpasswd file where usernames and
passwords are stored. The directory name must be an absolute path (full
directory path and filename).
5. Change to the /opt/apache/bin (Solaris) or c:\opt\apache\bin
(Windows) directory.
6. Run htpasswd . The first time you use the htpasswd command, use the -c
parameter to create the password file:
Solaris: htpasswd -c
/opt/pdn/OpenLane/database/config/.htpasswd username
Windows: htpasswd.exe -c
c:\opt\pdn\OpenLane\database\config\.htpasswd username
