Basic Auth

Open gonjat opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Great work so far!

Only issues I have that causes me to not use this over HomelabOS is the ability to add basic auth or to replace Minke ddns to nginx proxy manager that allows basic auth. I need it personally and not sure if I'm the only one. I will monitor this git repo to see if it is ever implemented, and if not then I shall remain on HomelabOS. Personally Minke box is easier and more appealing to the eyes, thats what I really want. (aside from basic auth)

I would love to see Minke interface with HomelabOS backbone lol but keep up the great work!

Could you walk me through what you're specifically after here? Apologies if that seems obvious.

Well I use a few selfhosted applications that I only require a basic authentication, I don't want to share which applications but it doesn't need to be 100% secure. What I use now is nginx proxy manager with a user/password basic authentication for the specific ip to subdomain. I can't use a VPN to tunnel in, and the applications don't have built in authentication. I don't have any other options that I can see. It works perfect, and the only thing stopping me from using MinkeBox is this. I love the look of MinkeBox and the simplicity, but basic auth is all I need to make the switch. You don't need to implement it, and I'm grateful for the followup question. The best example I can give, is imagine sonarr or radarr but without a built in authentication process, nginx proxy manager allows me to make 2 additional mouse clicks to provide them with a basic login. I hope this helps answer your question and I apologize if I'm not too clear or sound like a jerk. Stay safe and have a great day.
