Change the line's with 1998 to your node number. Also change the passwd= line and replace the
xxxxx with the password your chose in step 1 or have already assigned in the manager.conf file. You will
probably do other editing in this file later but for now this will get you going.
3. Create a password for you and possibly other users to login to Supermon
Change to the Supermon directory if not already there.
cd /srv/http/supermon
Recommend removing any existing .htpasswd file - rm .htpasswd
Add an htpasswd file
htpasswd -cB .htpasswd <userID> (subsequent additional entries use just -B)
Supply a password of your choice when prompted.
<userID> is the login ID and can be any username you would like to assign; your callsign
or admin for example. DO NOT enter the < or >. Do NOT use a ! (exclamation) in the password.
You can have more than one login and password. If assigning additional passwords the 'c'
create file switch must be dropped. In this case use:
htpasswd -B .htpasswd <userID>
To start Supermon in your browser enter your server's IP address/supermon in the address bar.
If your servers IP address is 192.168.1.100 then:
http://192.168.1.100/ supermon - assumes port 80
If you are using a different port - http://192.168.1.100:PORT/supermon - where PORT = your port number.
