But from the page "Webconf authentication":
"To completely disable authentication, leave the fields for username as well as 
password blank."
The above is correct because Linux and open source are all about choices. Users 
in our case are only allowed to access webconf from inside our private LAN. 
Admins/Users shall all have the ability to decide what level of security of 
Webconf access for a particular installation. The information on the page also 
correctly states:
"While it provides some protection, please note that the passwords are sent 
over the network in clear text."
