Hi,
I setup a two shard cluster using tomcat 6.0.35 with solr 4.0.0-BETA
version and zookeeper 3.3.4. I wanted to secure the solr admin page and
added a BASIC auth to the container so that all admin requests to the index
will be protected.I did this by adding below security constraint tag in
web.xml in {tomcat_home}/conf directory. Also, I defined the corresponding
roles ans user credentials in tomcat-users.xml at the same location. After
doing this, I could see that admin page is successfully secured.
ISSUE: But, the issue is Replication is not working and getting *401-
unauthorized* access when replica tries to connect to the leader.Is there
any workaround to fix this issue?
Appreciate your help.
