How to protect your server (or Web server) with a login/password ?
------------------------------------------------------------------
You can set a password to access to the server using the ``--password``.
By default, the login is ``glances`` but you can change it with
``--username``.
If you want, the SHA password will be stored in ``<login>.pwd`` file (in
the same folder where the Glances configuration file is stored, so
~/.config/glances/ on GNU Linus operating system).
Next time your run the server/client, password will not be asked. To set a
specific username you can used the -u <username> option.
It is also possible to set the default password in the Glances configuration
file:
.. code-block:: ini
[passwords]
# Define the passwords list
# Syntax: host=password
# Where: host is the hostname
# password is the clear password
# Additionally (and optionally) a default password could be defined
localhost=mylocalhostpassword
