Configuring the secret key
To ensure that sensitive information is not exposed, nLogin encrypts the messages sent between the proxy server and the backend server. Follow the steps below to configure the encryption key.
If the proxy server and the backend server are hosted on the same machine (most cases), disable encryption. To do this, remove the secret from the settings.
Open the file "nLogin/proxy/secret.yml" and change the value of secret to ""
# To ensure that communication between the proxy and the backend server is done in an encrypted way, nLogin creates a random secret key.
# If you leave the value below null, encryption will be disabled (useful for servers where the proxy is hosted on the same machine as the backend).
# To set it up, follow this tutorial: https://www.nickuc.com/docs/nlogin-proxy
secret: ""
Open the file "nLogin/secret.yml" and repeat the same procedure.
# To ensure that communication between the proxy and the backend server is done in an encrypted way, nLogin creates a random secret key.
# If you leave the value below null, encryption will be disabled (useful for servers where the proxy is hosted on the same machine as the backend).
# To set it up, follow this tutorial: https://www.nickuc.com/docs/nlogin-proxy
secret: ""
If the proxy server and the backend server are hosted on a different machine, enable encryption. To do this, use the same secret as the proxy server.
Open the file "nLogin/proxy/secret.yml" and copy the value of
secret as the example below:# To ensure that communication between the proxy and the backend server is done in an encrypted way, nLogin creates a random secret key.
# If you leave the value below null, encryption will be disabled (useful for servers where the proxy is hosted on the same machine as the backend).
# To set it up, follow this tutorial: https://www.nickuc.com/docs/nlogin-proxy
secret: "VivIvQaijL4ZNfMNlR8u1MbC"
Open the file "nLogin/secret.yml" and paste the value of
secret copied in the previous procedure.# To ensure that communication between the proxy and the backend server is done in an encrypted way, nLogin creates a random secret key.
# If you leave the value below null, encryption will be disabled (useful for servers where the proxy is hosted on the same machine as the backend).
# To set it up, follow this tutorial: https://www.nickuc.com/docs/nlogin-proxy
secret: "VivIvQaijL4ZNfMNlR8u1MbC"
The encryption process used can be costly for your server!
We recommend that you always prefer to use the proxy server and the backend server on the same machine.
*If you use shared hosting, opt for network plans or split plans. If the host does not offer this service, ask them via tickets to migrate both servers (proxy and backend) to the same node (extra service fees may apply).
The nLogin installed on the proxy has a special configuration
proxy/config.yml.
You may want to change some settings.Remember! You must configure the authentication servers in the
authentication-serversoption. *Only servers that use nLogin should be added.
