Monitorix 3.8 のbasic認証ファイル作成

暗号のアルゴリズムにcrypt()を使っているらしく、htpasswdファイル生成時に-dオプション指定が必要。

$ htpasswd -dbc /var/lib/monitorix/htpasswd ${MONITORIX_BASIC_USER} ${MONITORIX_BASIC_PASS}

$ man monitorix.conf

       htpasswd
              This  option  sets  the path to the password file that was created with the help of the htpasswd.pl script. That script encrypts and validates
              passwords using the system's crypt() routine. If your Monitorix package doesn't come with that script, you may  use  the  similar  htpasswd(1)

              Default value: /var/lib/monitorix/htpasswd

$ man htpasswd
