Here is the simplest configuration that just provides basic auth and with  
the same security constraints for all  
requests: [elasticsearch-jetty Basis Auth Configuration · GitHub](https://gist.github.com/2282444) Simply drop jetty.xml and  
realm.properties into the config directory and add the line from  
elasticsearch.yml file to your elasticsearch.yml config.

For a more complex example  
with see [https://github.com/sonian/elasticsearch-jetty/blob/master/config/jetty.xml](https://github.com/sonian/elasticsearch-jetty/blob/master/config/jetty.xml)
