restricted access to Redmine

Hi,
we have redmine stack running thanks to beltran :)
BUT we have to restrict access for it and only users defined in .htpasswd file should be able to access our redmine
i’ve tried to put .htpasswd and .htaccess files to …/redmine/public/ and to …/apache2/htdocs/ also but with no effect :(
can you help with it?
thanks a lot

Hi radsluk,

You can use the Apache authorization. Try to write this in httpd.conf:

<location />
authtype basic
authname “Name”
authuserfile /path/to/user/database/file
require user userid
</location>

Then, to create the user database you can use the httpwd utility included with Apache.

$ cd <installation_directory>/apache2/bin
$ ./httpasswd -c file userid

I hope it helps you!

thanks alot beltran :)
it works !
