NZBGet WebGUI Password?

[Mitch72]

Has anyone been able to get NZBGet to require a username and password to access the web client?

I've looked at the settings.php file:

// username for web-interface. Leave it blank to disable authorization-check
$webusername = 'user';

// password for web-interface.
$webpassword = 'pass';

and changed "user" and "pass" to my own username and password, but it still doesn't prompt me to access the server.

Any ideas?

Cheers!
Mitch

Hi Mitch,

Were you able to let NZBGet ask for user password?

Thanks,

Think I solved it myself. Not really familiar with PHP but a search on the internet learned me that REQUEST is not really recommended to use.
You should use POST instead.

So changed login.php from:

$auth_valid = false;

if (isset($_REQUEST['username']) || isset($_REQUEST['password'])) {
	$auth_username = $_REQUEST['username'];
	$auth_password = $_REQUEST['password'];
} else {
	if (isset($_SESSION['auth_username']))
		$auth_username = $_SESSION['auth_username'];
	if (isset($_SESSION['auth_password']))
		$auth_password = $_SESSION['auth_password'];
}
 

To:

$auth_valid = false;

if (isset($_POST['username']) || isset($_POST['password'])) {
	$auth_username = $_REQUEST['username'];
	$auth_password = $_REQUEST['password'];
} else {
	if (isset($_SESSION['auth_username']))
		$auth_username = $_SESSION['auth_username'];
	if (isset($_SESSION['auth_password']))
		$auth_password = $_SESSION['auth_password'];
}

That did the trick for me!
