Hi there
Config:
Apache:
| Code: |
<IfModule mod_authnz_external.c>
#AddExternalAuth pwauth /usr/sbin/pwauth
#SetExternalAuthMethod pwauth pipe
DefineExternalAuth pwauth pipe /usr/sbin/pwauth
</IfModule>
|
.htaccess:
| Code: |
<IfModule mod_authnz_external.c>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Login"
AuthBasicProvider external
AuthExternal pwauth
Require valid-user
</IfModule>
|
Apache log:
| Code: |
[Thu Jan 24 14:11:29.450802 2019] [authnz_external:error] [pid 647] [client 192.168.178.184:54094] AuthExtern pwauth [/usr/sbin/pwauth]: Failed (3) for user root
[Thu Jan 24 14:11:29.451002 2019] [auth_basic:error] [pid 647] [client 192.168.178.184:54094] AH01617: user root: authentication failure for "/configure_wlan.php": Password Mismatch

Why? What they write here seems to be nonsense: https://serverfault.com/questions/45278/authenticate-in-apache-via-system-account#692619
Thx for feedbacks! 
EDIT: chmod u+s /usr/bin/pwauth does also not work, i copied /usr/bin/pwauth to /usr/bin/pwauth2 because i don't want to touch the original file. so chmod u+s /usr/bin/pwauth2 and /usr/bin/pwauth2 in apache config. does also not work?!? Maybe it's not compatible on Rasbpian stretch?? |
