Hi,
thanks for the hint. This seem to work for the single actions possible, like shutdown, force rebuild and so on but this still exposes the console, etc to the public web.
You can see the changesource path, the builders and so on.

I thought providing htaccess could allow me to protected the entire view from public.

Buildbot is on a vserver exposed to the internet but all resources should be available to logged in users (apache, trac, buildbot)
while I can handle apache and trac via apache config buildbot creates its own server which seems to be quite open minded.

So is there a known way how to require a valid htaccess login to be able to see anything?
Otherwise buildbot would be quite unhandy for teams coorporating via internet.

Thanks
Sam
