HTTPS is now a requirement
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This package now depends on Apache's mod_ssl pacakge. This will automatically
|
||
|
be installed along with ZoneMinder. Upon installation, the mod_ssl package
|
||
|
will create a default, self-signed certificate. This is the certificate that
|
||
|
ZoneMinder will use out of the box.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since the certificate is self-signed, you will get a warning from your browser
|
||
|
the first time you access the web portal. This is normal.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is not intended to be an all encompasing solution for everyone. ZoneMinder
|
||
|
will work just fine over HTTPS the way it is currently configured. However,
|
||
|
here are a couple of considerations you may want to take.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Create your own certificate. The CentOS wiki has a guide that describes how
|
||
|
to do this: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Https . Additionally, Googling
|
||
|
"centos certificate" reveals many articles on the subject. Note that some
|
||
|
third party applications, such as zmNinja, will require you to create a
|
||
|
certificate different than the default certificate on your machine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. You can turn off HTTPS entirely by simply commenting out the SSLRequireSSL
|
||
|
directives found in /etc/httpd/conf.d/zoneminder.conf. You should also
|
||
|
comment out the HTTP -> HTTPS Rewrite rule.
