Is it somehow possible to protect the webinterface additionally by using .htaccess?

[wuischke]

No, it's not possible using this method as amuleweb doesn't support apache .htaccess.

But it should be possible to use an additional password prompt even though I doubt it would be reasonable to ask twice for a password.

I´m thinking about opening the webinterface-port to the internet, so I´m wondering if this would be a big security risk to open this port to the internet.

[wuischke]

I don't see a difference in the functionality of the htaccess-password prompt and the amuleweb loginpage.

Using amuleweb (with a good password) is imho no security risk. If someone knows the password, the worst which could happen is the deletion of files or the usage of disk space by adding more files.

Well, amuleweb is most certainly not as good secured as apache. And a possible intruder could do everything the local amule user can do...
