# htpasswd /var/www/htpasswd.conf user-X Password: Retype Password: # chown www /var/www/htpasswd.conf # chmod 600 /var/www/htpasswd.conf again # /etc/httpd.conf ext_addr="*" server "default" { listen on * port 80 authenticate "secure area" with "/htpasswd.conf" } now i use Rpi3 openbsd as sshd and www server with basic auth . Rpi3 is about 5W so very ecological . and Rpi3 openbsd is sufficient for personal use and very convinient . thanks --------- best regards by T tuyosi
