Logon for remote access #73

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hello,

Suggestion: 

it would be very nice if we could define a Login (Username and Password in 
Webconfig) to allow Remote Access to the error log.

regards

This could open a whole anohter can of worms from secure credentials 
management, UI 
updates and more. Would it be sufficient if ELMAH allowed slightly more 
fine-grained 
control like roles that are allowed remote access rather just a single Boolean 
flas 
as it is now? This would assume that the web site already has some 
authentication 
mechanism (Forms, Basic, Digest, etc.) in place and so it would be fairly quick 
to 
address. Might even make it into version 1.0. :)

...more fine-grained control could be a solution...

On second thoughts, I think this would just duplicate what's already there. The 
following wiki addresses secruring ELMAH via standard URL authorization 
techniques 
and where you can specify roles and users:
http://code.google.com/p/elmah/wiki/SecuringErrorLogPages
The remote access switch is really as an additional measure where you could use 
URL-
based authorization to secure ELMAH and on top say that those users and roles 
can or 
cannot access the pages remotely.
