Hi All, we're trying to implement a basic authentication for a Kibana 4 instance but we can't put in front of Kibana an Apache webserver because it doesn't support the proxypass. Could you help us to understand if this configuration is possible? Thanks, Marcello -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi , You can place a NGINX or Apache and redirect request to Kibana4 nodeJS port. Its very much possible , I have done this on couple of production environments.
