Doesn't seem to hard to do, without the need to download anything. Sure, it's not a perfect solution, but for protecting the miner website this should do: http://www.thesitewizard.com/apache/password-protect-directory.shtml

That looks a bit more trustworthy than what OP has posted. Thanks for the resource.

What's contained in the zip file?

Yep, my confidence in this is rising Roll Eyes

Good point... This could very well be a way to hijack LKETC machines..

This is very useful, thanks. I wish that it was included by default since the majority of people probably won't take the time to go through this process.

As you guys know LKETC miner don't have any password protection i am using LKETC so i protected my miner with username and password so no one can have access through network or any other way. For that you must have SSH access to your miner so you can edit your miner's webpage.

Tutorial about how to reset / reinstall miner on LKETC to get SSH access and to change index page

Code:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=648730.0

Let's Start

Make sure everything is connected to network and internet is working

Login to your SSH
Go to your files directory with this command

Code:

cd /var/www

Type this command to download zip file

Code:

wget http://www.latradizione.com/images/passwordprotect.zip

Quote

Link you can download and inspect this link if it is clean or not

and i provided direct link because sometimes newbies don't know much so it will be easy for them to use.

Code:

http://www.latradizione.com/images/passwordprotect.zip

Use this command to unzip your downloaded zip file

Code:

unzip passwordprotect.zip

Check all files that passwordprotect.php is extracted from zip file or not with this command

Code:

ls

as it is extracted now you can remove zip file as it's files are extracted to your drive or you can keep it as you wish
but who want's to remove zip file type this command

Code:

rm passwordprotect.zip

Now you have to setup your username and password for your miner
type this command to edit passwordprotect.php

Code:

nano passwordprotect.php

Find

Code:

$LOGIN_INFORMATION = array(
  'username' => 'password',
);

Replace username with your required login username for your miner and password with your required password for your miner when you are done press ctrl+x press y and save the file.

You can add more then 1 user account to login for that you can see this example

Code:

$LOGIN_INFORMATION = array(
  'username1' => 'password1',
  'username2' => 'password2',
  'username3' => 'password3',
  'username4' => 'password4',
);

Using this method you can add many users as you want

now edit your index (in my condition it is default.php as i changed my index file using tutorial provided above for LKETC)
Type this command

Code:

nano default.php

on top paste this code

Code:

include("passwordprotect.php"); ?>

Save your file using ctrl+x and now add this code using same method to all php files you have in your /var/www/ directory and they all will be password protected.

Remember all files must be in same directory of your web folder where your files are located which you are trying to password protect.

Note:- if direct link for passwordprotect.zip is not working you can download passwordprotect.zip from links below or just let me know and i will update direct link
