Workarounds like proxying by nginx is not a workaround, it's the industry standard way of managing access to services. It's both more convenient and more secure, a rare combination.
More convenient because you can use your companies pre-existing authentication to authenticate the requests, and more secure because you're not having to manage separate passwords and user accounts.
- dvfjsdhgfv 6y agoI understand your opinion, but it's not like that everywhere. I work for many clients who have single servers or specific setups and having to configure Nginx is an extra step and an additional layer that could be made totally unnecessary by building in just one admin account and assigning a random password to it.
