The Jetty servlet container that Solr uses doesn't understand those files. It would not use them to determine access, and would likely make them accessible to web requests in plain text.

Thanks Otis. Do think a .htaccess / .passwd file in the Solr admin dir would 
interfere with its operation?

Hi Craig,

If you want to protect Solr, put it behind something like Apache / Nginx /
HAProxy and put .htaccess at that level, in front of Solr.
Or try something like

Quick question: If put a .htaccess file in www.mydomin.com/8983/solr/#/
will Solr continue to function properly? One thing to note, I will have a
CRON job that runs nightly that re-indexes the engine. In a nutshell I’m
looking for a way to secure this area.

Thanks,
Craig
