Authorization for admin zone

[ponasromas]

Hello,

How to implement basic authorization to the admin area of gstream? Is it possible at all?

use nginx as the proxy

Could you drop some simple example? I've tried with Apache proxy but with null results.

my nginx conf example:

worker_processes 4;

events {
  worker_connections 1024;
}

http {
  upstream app {
    server 127.0.0.1:20118;
    keepalive 64;
  }

  server {
    listen *:20228;
    server_name _;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.access.log;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.error.log;
    auth_basic "Restricted Area";
    auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;

    location / {
      proxy_pass http://app;
    }
  }
}
