(see Figure 4-9 on page 4.14 and Figure 4-5 on page 4.9 for examples). Depending on how you
configure the Apache httpd.conf file, the user will see this dialog box when attempting to
read the database (or database sampling policies) or when attempting to edit the sampling
policies via Web browser. Note that the appearance of this dialog box may vary depending on
which version of Windows you are using.
The following example provides two sample Directory directives that can be placed in the
Apache httpd.conf file for the purpose of user access control. This example allows for the
distinction between users with database and sampling policy read access and those with
database sampling policy edit privileges. Note that, when adding Directory directives to the
httpd.conf file, you must also create a password file {password_file} , as described in
your Apache documentation.
In the above example:
■ {password_file} is a password file that you must create (see the Apache documentation
for instructions). Both directives can use the same password file.
■ {username_read} is the username for a user that is allowed read access to the System
Reporter database and database sampling policies
■ {username_edit} is the username for a user that is allowed to edit database sampling
policies.
