token authentication #256

Closed izahn closed 7 years ago

izahn commented 7 years ago

Since Notebook 4.3 token authentication is on by default, and my tmpnb installation started asking for password. I eventually figured out I could set --NotebookApp.token="", but I'm not sure if that is safe or if there is a recommended way. (I guess it is as safe as it was before since token authentication was disabled by default before. Or do I have that wrong?).

I saw https://github.com/jupyter/tmpnb/issues/255 which seems related. Should I be using https://github.com/yuvipanda/jupyterhub-tmpauthenticator?

That's correct, you now need to set the token to '' for tmpnb installations.

I'm working on an update to tmpnb that will use the tokens to login users when they get their containers, making it a nice security improvement for tmpnb.
