Squid and cachemgr_password
-
Hello fellow Netgate community members,
I just researched and found that we can set a password for cachemgr for use with cachemgr.cgi so that the GUI is secure. However your package status page must also be adapted so that it still displays information.
Example,
I have password set the manger info page to make it more secure.
However your status page must also be set to use this within your
/usr/local/www/status_squid.php
All you have to do is add a @Password _here after mgr:info to allow access to your status page still.
Yes it is that simple to secure your cachemgr.cgi and still have access to GUI package tools.
This is part 2 of making cachemgr.cgi accessible this makes it also secure from the web browser system.
