Bazaar Explorer

how to save the authendication credentials in Bazaar Explorer?

Asked by Vijaya Kumar

Hi,

I have configured bazaar smart server with apache and restricted access using 'AuthUserfile' in apache httpd.conf.

From (Bazaar Explorer) client if i try to do any operation it is asking me the credentials again and again.

Is there any way to save the login credentials, so that i can save the credentilas at the first time of my login?

Regards,
Vijay

You need to edit your authentication.conf and put desired username
(and maybe password) in there. See bzr documentation for details.

I tried to just put my username and its giving me this error

bzr: ERROR: Error(s) parsing config file C:/Documents and Settings/300228319/Application Data/bazaar/2.0/authentication.conf:
Invalid line at line "1".

You can have several sections for different servers as following

[myserver]
user = desired-login-name
password = secret
host = bzr://myserver.net

See

for more details
