No user authentication?

[MarcS1975]

I have successfully installed umurmur and can access it via different clients but it seem the server makes no user authentication at all.
Any username and any password can get access to the chat server immediately.
How can I switch on the user authentication?

There is no user authentication for non admin users.

Then how can I controll access?

This server is not designed for large public facing servers. If you want that kind of control you will need to use the mumble.info server

OK. And how do I become an admin user?

[snowblind]

First uncomment and set to a password you want to use in this line in config file umurmur.conf

# admin_password = "test"; # Set to enable admin functionality.

admin_password = "yourpasswd"; # Set to enable admin functionality.

restart server!

while connect to the server you just setup

In the mumble client go to menu Server/Access Token...
It will will open a window click ADD button and type in password used in server config file then click OK

Then reconnect and if there are other users in server you can right-click them and some new options to kick them and move them etc. should not be greyed out now.....

Just pick up a USER and drag to channel to move them

You cant kick yourself so that will not test it

Use one of the mumble phone apps to connect and test admin user with.

You maybe be able to ban users that way if you setup a ban file in server config. It may add an option that shows up for that in right click menu for that I cant remember now it maybe not settable from client may have to manually edit the the banlist file.

thanks.
Is it possible through certificate authentication to restrict access, similar to SSH Key exchanges?

I tried generating a client certificate and uploaded it to 'ca_path' set in the umurmur.conf but it does not change behaviour.

Also, any attempt to upload a doc or pic from any client throws a fatal error and resets the server connection.
Is this feature supported?

Sounds like #172

Thanks. Yes that's seems to be the same problem. On another note, umurmur also doesn't seem to have a chat history. Whenever I log in the old conversation is not there. Do I need to change a setting?

Anyone any ideas about the chat history?
All chat rooms are empty of any text when users log out and back in.
Is this normal? Conversations don't get stored?
