Protect solr admin on 8983

Protect solr admin on 8983

Hello,

How can we protect port 8983 on a server running solr ?

What is the right way to secure this access ?

Thank you

If the server is running unix, it's probably simple enough to protect the solr server via Unix based IPTABLES commands... to wit: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/...es-to-help-secure-your-linux-box/539

Thank you Nate for this solution.

Gonna try to find a solution where i can still authenticate to those pages.

I think this should do it:

iptables -A INPUT ! -s 127.0.0.1 -p tcp -m multiport --dports 8983 -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

Hi,

An other way is to configure solr to protect, via login/password, some/all uri. 

Please read official solr wiki for more details: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrSecurity#Path_Based_Authentication

 

Cheers,

Philippe

I second @Philippe Vincent-Royol's reply: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrSecurity. It has everything you want, I believe happy.gif Emoticon

Thank you Bertrand, i've read those pages before posting the topic.

I was hoping someone could post an ezfind ready jetty config to protect those pages.

This apache solr security documentation is totally obscure for me and directive mentioned are not changing anything here...never touched a line of java before this afternoon sad.gif Emoticon
