Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC and ACLs ?

[Bryan K. (.net) <bk...@ke...>]

By default "file-based" authentication is used.  To create an account for
logging in, at the system console run:
*htpasswd /etc/BackupPC/apache.users (username)*
*
*
that will allow (username) to login with the password you've defined.
 They'll only be able to see the workstation that they have been associated
with in the Edit Hosts link.  If (username) is a member of the
CgiAdminUsers (something like that), they have access to everything that
backuppc user has.

In my environment, I have enabled LDAP authentication in apache, so users
are able to login with their domain username/password (and only see
workstations they have been associated with unless added to the
CgiAdminUsers list.

That help?
