Nginx Configuration Basic Authentication

/**/

Configuring Basic authentication under Nginx requires an Nginx http_auth_basic_module module (Official document: Http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_auth_basic_ module.html)

Configuration process:

① generate authentication file in the form of user name: password

Password is encrypted by crypt (username: User, password: 123456)

The file is saved under/usr/local/nginx/conf

Generate File:

" user:$ (OpenSSL passwd-crypt 123456) \ n " >>htpasswd

To view the file:

② Configure the/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf file and add Auth_basic and Auth_basic_user_file to the location segment:

Location                 \ {                        "login";                        auth_basic_user_file/usr/local/nginx/conf/htpasswd;                }

Where Auth_basic is the pop-up prompt, you can customize

Auth_basic_user_file is the path to the authentication file, the absolute path can be written, or the file name can be written only (the default path is/usr/local/nginx/conf)

Smooth restart Nginx.

If you enter an error, the popup will continue to pop up;

If you cancel the input, the response 401 Unauthorized:
