How can we pop up log in window asking user id and pwd in apache nifi https web browser without using ssl certificate.

[#1]

Hi All,

Can anyone help me on knowing how to get the log in window asking user id and password in apache nifi https web browser.

We dont want to use SSL certificate for the same. Is there any other way to configure the nifi properties so that when w log in it will ask user id and pwd.

Thanks in adavance.

NiFi by default will use a user's SSL certificate if it is included by your browser during the connection to NiFi's URL.

NiFi can be configured to use LDAP or Kerberos as alternate Authentication methods. Once configured, these alternate methods will be used only if a user does not pass a SSL certificate.

Information about setting up LDAP or kerberos can be found in NiFo's Admin guide:

Thanks,

Matt
