Password — specify password for RemoteUser
Password that will cause internal authorization checks for RemoteUser
to allow access.
The password must be encrypted, unless MV_NO_CRYPT
is
enabled.
Example: Setting Password with an encrypted string corresponding to a blank password
Password bAWoVkuzphOX.
The encrypted password is a standard Unix crypt, which you can obtain either
using makepasswd --crypt or indirectly
using htpasswd, or invoking
perl -le'print crypt("mypasswd","AA")',
where mypasswd
is the desired password and
AA
are two random characters called
the salt.
See MV_NO_CRYPT
and [crypt]
for more discussion.
See crypt glossary entry for complete information on crypto
algorithms used and ways to generate encrypted strings.
