Can password access be supported kiwix web?How to set it up?

mgautierfr commented 11 months ago

This is not possible directly with kiwix-serve. But if you setup a proxy (nginx, httpd, ...) on top of kiwix-serve, you should be able to setup a authentication there.

Kiwix-serve is not aimed to reimplememt all features of a typical web server. The reverse proxy is the solution to this request.
