Toon Webaccess

Post by Arnout2000 »

Is there a way to disable webaccess to require a username/pwd?
I only access Toon when on my home network or via VPN server when I am away.

you can disable this in the file /HCBv2/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
But that file will be overwritten if we publish a new version or if you do 'fix stuff' via update-rooted.

Why is it a problem? You can simple add the username password to the url to toon: http://name:password@ipadresstoon/mobile

Thanks. That would also be a good solution. Will try tomorrow.

Tried this, but It doesn’t work. Despite entering the right username and password in the URL it keeps asking me to enter the credentials.
Can anyone confirm this should work?

This never worked for me either.

I modified the file /HCBv2/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
Find these lines (see below) and add the "# ", safe it and restart your Toon
#auth.require = ( "/mobile" =>
#
# ("method" => "basic",
# "realm" => "Enter password",
# "require" => "valid-user"
# )
# )
The only thing is, the file will be overwritten with a newer version after an update like mentioned before.

Ron.
