Scope

There are three options to enable HTTP authentication for JOC

  • Configure ./config/scheduler.xml
  • Configure an Apache and use it as a proxy
  • Configure the Jetty plugin

Configure ./config/scheduler.xml

You can use JOE to configure the user name and password for authentication by the following steps:

  • Open the ./config/scheduler.xml file in JOE via Ctrl+O
  • Goto HTTPServer->HTTP Authentication
  • Enter User Name and Password
  • Click the Encrypt button
  • Click the Apply button
  • Save the configuration via Ctrl+S

Then the http.user element is inserted to the ./config/scheduler.xml file; see also http://www.sos-berlin.com/doc/en/scheduler.doc/xml/http.authentication.xml

...
   <http_server>
     <http.authentication>
       <http.users>
         <http.user name="admin" password_md5="21232F297A57A5A743894A0E4A801FC3"/>
