How to enable password protection
AbelCam can be password protected.
In the main menu, select Configuration / Passwords
The master switch for password protection is the checkbox Protected. If this is checked, the passwords are active.
If you have your AbelCam server listed on the public camera list you may not password protect your server.
You can configure passwords for the various sections / functions of the web server:
- Main
Normal web pages - Camera
Camera access - Tilt/Pan
All Tilt / Pan functions - Screen

Password for the Web Admin Interface
The interface is not available if there is no password set.
With passwords active, the browser will ask you for user name and password. The user name does not have to be entered or can be set to anything, AbelCam only checks the password enterd.
