Thanks !
I googled a bit and found a step by step instruction, but for ubuntu not arch !
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-http-authentication-with-nginx-on-ubuntu-12-10
I am already stuck at step 1. (get a tool, here apache2-utils, to produce the encrypted passwd.
pacman -Syu apache2-utils => results in "target not found"
Step 2 is less or more clear
Step 3 is unclear. I thought that the file to be edited is /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
but I cannot find the following lines at all:
listen portnumber;
server_name ip_address;
Step 4: is less or more clear
Can you help ?
Regards
Ralf
