I'm new to CGRU and in special with Afanasy.
But now, having just completed basic configuration and running few times the default render test, I was wondering if you can setup some kind of password when connecting to afserver.
Yes, I can limit access by defining IP ranger from where I wan to connect, but in my render farm configuration, every time I'm starting a render node ... there is no way to know in what range will be his IP and I can't even use host name that is generated using IP.
If until now I wasn't able to explain my self :) then, you can imagine a situation where I want to control all render situations (including new job submission) to office's render farm from home, more of times in the weekend.
Which is your advices to configure access over internet to Afanasy server? Of course without a direc need to use ssh.
Thanks for your advices :)
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
No. But will be too )
Note that "eta" will be very draft. I can only calculate job done percentage and running time. And approximate finish time. But and tasks can change difficulty and farm can be used by other jobs.

Hi. Now there is no authentication in afanasy. But it is in near plans.
Right now our users controls afanasy jobs in some other way, vpn, teamviewier and so on (like any other programs).
Soon there will be digest authentication and for afwatch and for web gui.
Thank You
this means that for now I can stop my investigation on this argument over the docs :)
is there some ETA for when this will be done?
No. But will be too )

will keep watch on further developments on this topics :)
Thanks again :)
