Hello all. I am using 5.2.5. I am trying to setup the httpd server so that
it can be accessed both globally (but only read-only) and from within
localhost (with read-write access). This is the relevant part in monitrc:
set httpd port 9990 and
allow admin:password readonly # password is obscured
allow localhost
Using that configuration, when I try to access the httpd server through the
internet, only a blank page is shown. And the following entry was logged by
monit:
monit: Denied connection from non-authorized client [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Likewise, the command "monit status" executed from localhost returned the
following error:
monit: cannot read status from the monit daemon
Using curl to connect to the monit server from localhost returned a "401
Unauthorized You are not authorized to access monit" but supplying the given
username and password was successful.
It seems to me that rather than using either condition (allow user admin
with read access only OR allow localhost with full access), monit uses both
conditions when checking access to the httpd server. How can I configure
monit to use only either one? Thanks a lot for your time.
