Web authentication

Post by Bezalel79 »

Hi Everybody.
I'd like to enable web authentication.
I've found this post:
https://universalmediaserver.com/forum/ ... hp?t=13490
and so I add this lines:

UMS.cred

web.server = test,test

UMS.conf

web_authenticate = true
web.server = test,test

But don't work, can you help me?

I use UMS 9.3.0 on Windows 10

It has probably been broken at some stage without getting noticed, since I don't think very many people use this. Try earlier versions, I know it works in 6.x.

If it has been broken along the way it would be good to know when that was, Bezalel79. Please let us know if it works in v6 first

I understand that at least until version 7.8.0 it worked

The UMS folder should not be hidden. The "ProgramData" might be hidden though, depending on your Windows settings.
