Apache Server-Status with mod_status

dico · 11-05-2010, 04:11 AM

dear all,

I used to use a host with WHM as a control panel. And it has a feature to display Apache Status, and it will give a display like this. I've learn from here that I only need to add this config at my httpd.conf:

Code:

<Location /server-status>
   SetHandler server-status
   Order Deny,Allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from 10.1.2.5
</Location>

My problem is I can't state my ip in the "allow from" part because my IP is uncertain (DHCP generated), but I don't want anyone else to be able to see my Apache Status. I've tried using htpasswd but with no luck.

Is there any way I can put an authentication on my server-status? And if it's possible I'll be glad if I can hid my server-status under Webmin since my new host using webmin as a control panel.

Any ideas are welcome.

regards,

Dico

Hi,

You can use the following:

Code:

<Location /server-status>
   SetHandler server-status
   Order Deny,Allow
AuthUserFile /path/to/htpasswd
AuthName "Server Status"
AuthType Basic
require user dico
</Location>

Since I don't use webmin, I cannot help you for the webmin part.

@bathory: Thanks, it works

I forgot my old config but it's not working. So I can't compare where I did wrong.

That's ok. Again, thanks
