Hello Martin,

 

So do you mean if I add "allow my.ip.address" I could then access Monit with
a link such as "http://server-ip:2812? 

 

Awaiting your reply!

The "allow" options which are also included in your configuration protect
the access with usrname+password. You can also limit the access to specific
IP addresses (in addition to username/password) for example like this:
"allow 1.2.3.4"

Hello Martin,

 

Thank you for that. It works now. Just one question, is this safe? Or there
any other way for me to access this without allowing other users to even see
the login page?

The "use address localhost" option makes monit listen only on 127.0.0.1
(loopback) => it will be accessible via http://127.0.0.1:2812 on the same
host where monit is running, but not from other hosts. If you want to access
it from other hosts, remove this option.

 

Regards,

Martin

I am unable to open it yet from a web browser. I get a not found error. I
have even tried to add the 2812 port in the allow list of my ConfigServer
Firewall, but yet no luck.

 

The details in my monitrc file are:

set httpd port 2812 and

    use address localhost  # only accept connection from localhost

    allow localhost        # allow localhost to connect to the server and

    allow admin:monit    # require user 'admin' with password 'monit'

    allow @monit           # allow users of group 'monit' to connect (rw)

    allow @users readonly  # allow users of group 'users' to connect
readonly

 

 

Can anyone help with this.

 

 

Regards,

Harish
