monitorix是一个不错的Linux系统监控软件。很多可能不懂E文的朋友不知道怎么给Monitorix添加登录密钥。

下面就来简单介绍下吧（Monitorix 安装的很简单，不懂可以留言）：

相关配置文件部分：

<httpd_builtin>
	enabled = y
	host =
	port = 8080
	user = nobody
	group = nogroup
	log_file = /var/log/monitorix-httpd
	hosts_deny =
	hosts_allow =
	<auth>
		enabled = y  # 这里要改为y
		msg = Monitorix: Restricted access
		htpasswd = /var/lib/monitorix/htpasswd
	</auth>
</httpd_builtin>

htpasswd This option sets the path to the password file that was created with the help of the htpasswd.pl script. That script encrypts and validates passwords using the system’s crypt() routine. If your Monitorix package doesn’t come with that script, you may use the similar htpasswd(1) program provided with the Apache web server.

The format of the password file consist of one or more lines with a username and password separated by a colon.

The following is an example of a password file:

paul:oGkEsQK6RYIII 
peter:HF1r7qRL4Kg6E

Since the script uses the crypt() algorithm, only the first 8 characters of the password are used to form the password. If the supplied password is longer, the extra characters will be silently discarded.

其实很多人卡壳就在怎么生成密钥，下面本人提供一个简单的Perl小脚本，用来生成密钥，添加到

/var/lib/monitorix/htpasswd

即可。

OK，这样就可以了。
