In defaults.aut, the word before the = is your username, and the word after
the = is your password. For example, this will let you log in to
http://127.0.0.1/admin as a user "eviloverlord" with password "topsecret":
[/Admin]
eviloverlord=topsecret
If you have admin=xxx and SecureName=xxx lines, you can log in as either of
the users "admin" or "SecureName", with password "xxx" in either case. I
assume you don't want this.
The one exception to this is "webmask=something", which sets which
computers can access the admin screen (webmask=local will restrict it to
the computer the server is actually running on).
If you're using Netscape 6 or Mozilla, you may need to edit defaults.cfg
and add this:
[Console]
Javascript = "0"
(if the [Console] section is already there, either add the Javascript key
or edit it to switch it to 0). I couldn't use the Javascript admin
interface with Mozilla 0.94, but it works now (in Mozilla 0.95), so your
mileage may vary. I actually considered sending iMatix a patch to use
different Javascript function names to avoid this problem, but the names
are hard-coded into their form generating tool :-(
I might still try adapting it so the Javascript isn't critical: if I do,
I'll definitely let iMatix know so they can merge it into some future
version.
If you have a really screwed config, adding this to defaults.cfg may help:
[Wsx]
admin=xiadmin
although this shouldn't be necessary.
