Basic authentication (httpd conf)
For backward compatibility reasons, uhttpd uses the file /etc/httpd.conf to define
authentication areas and the associated usernames and passwords. This configuration
file is not in UCI format.
Authentication realms are defined in the format prefix:username:password with one
entry and a line break.
Prefix is the URL part covered by the realm, for example, cgi-bin to request basic auth
for any CGI program.
Username specifies the username a client has to login with.
Password defines the secret password required to authenticate.
The password can be either in plain text format, MD5 encoded or in the form $p$user
where the user refers to an account in /etc/shadow or /etc/passwd.
If you use $p$… format, uhttpd will compare the client provided password against the
one stored in the shadow or passwd database.
