ElasticSearch(6)Kibana Authentication

ElasticSearch(6)Kibana Authentication

First of all, disable the connection to Kibana directly.
> vi config/kibana.yml
server.host: "localhost"

Nginx Installation
> wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.16.0.tar.gz
> tar zxvf nginx-1.16.0.tar.gz

Unzip the source code, install the dependencies
> sudo apt-get -y update
> sudo apt-get install -y apt-utils
> sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
> sudo apt-get install -y build-essential gcc make
> sudo apt-get install -y libpcre3 libpcre3-dev zlib1g-dev libgcrypt11-dev

Compile that
> ./configure --prefix=/home/carl/tool/nginx-1.16.0

Make and Make install in the working directory, after installation, link the working directory for future usage
> sudo ln -s /home/carl/tool/nginx-1.16.0 /opt/nginx-1.16.0
> sudo ln -s /opt/nginx-1.16.0 /opt/nginx

Create the password
> mkdir -p /opt/nginx/passwd
Create the password in the file
> htpasswd -c -b /opt/nginx/passwd/kibana.passwd carl 123456
It will generate the user and password, but it will overwrite the previous users.

This works as well, but that will overwrite the file
> htpasswd -c -d /opt/nginx/passwd/kibana.passwd luo

-c is to create the file
> htpasswd -c /opt/nginx/passwd/kibana.passwd luo

Once you have the file, you just do
> htpasswd /opt/nginx/passwd/kibana.passwd kang

The major configuration is as follow
upstream kibana {
    server localhost:5601;
}

server {
        listen       80;
        server_name  localhost;
        auth_basic "Restricted Access";
        auth_basic_user_file /opt/nginx/passwd/kibana.passwd;
        #charset koi8-r;
        #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;
        location / {
  proxy_pass http://kibana;
          proxy_redirect off;
}
}
