Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: zoneminder

The ZoneMinder Streaming Server (/usr/lib/cgi-bin/zms and nph-zms) does
not work with hash-based authentication. The result of this is that you
cannot view monitors at all when using hash-based authentication.

>From the changelog:
zoneminder (1.22.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
  * Initial Version. (closes: #248393)
  * Patched out use of openssl; uses gnutls instead for MD5 hashes.

>From my limited testing, the whole ZoneMinder system got patched except
for zms.

After installing from this package and enabling hash-based authentication, zms 
barfs this into the syslog over and over:
zms[7823]: ERR [Unable to authenticate user]
zms[7824]: ERR [You need to build with openssl installed to use hash based 
authentication]

Installing libssl-dev and building from official ZoneMinder source
(without ubuntu patches) results in a working zms.

Seems like zms still needs to be patched.

** Affects: zoneminder (Ubuntu)
