RE: authentication for solr admin page?

 Hi Mark, 
As I know you can either limit server access by only allowing certain IPs which 
is a crude, or as you said using the servlet BASIC authentication. 
Solr is just a WAR file deployed in a Servlet container, so you can use all of 
the capabilities of Servlet containers to control access. In order to limit 
access to /solr/update* and /solr/ admin/* in Jetty by requiring BASIC 
authentication from your users, you merely edit the web.xml in your Solr WAR 
adding the following stanza at the bottom:


Solr Admin
/admin/*


admin




Solr Update
/update*


admin
content_updater



BASIC
Test Realm


This specifies that access to the /update* URLs is limited to anyone in the 
roles of admin or content_updater, although only admin users can access the 
/admin/* URLs. The realm-name is what ties the security constraints to the 
users configured in Jetty.

You may need to refer to Jetty side to see how to configure user realm.

Best Regards,
Liang

update -

ok - i was reading about replication here:

http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrReplication

and noticed comments in the solrconfig.xml file related to HTTP Basic 
Authentication and the usage of the following tags:

username
password

*Can i place these tags in the request handler to achieve an authentication 
scheme for the /admin page?*

// snipped from the solrconfig.xml file

  

thanks for any help
