HTTP Interface (how to add a password protection)

[OwenBurnett]

Hi,
is there any way to make the HTTP Interface secure?
So that only authorised users can access it?
Somethink like a password would be great

[OwenBurnett]

can anyone help me?

I know how to do a simple login page using PHP, however that wouldn't be much help unless you are hosting the index page on a web server supporting PHP.

JavaScript could be used. The best (very simple and insecure) JavaScript login I found after a quick search was:

However the username and password can just be viewed in the source code so not particulary secure.

Arite.

as this http://wiki.videolan.org/HTTP wiki page says, you can use :

--http-user and --http-pwd
