Configuring Mingle's authentication
The authentication settings for Mingle are controlled through the [mingle_data_directory]/config/auth_config.yml file. This file is created by default on all brand new installations.
Using other authentication systems
Configuring basic authentication
To enable basic authentication, you need to set the basic_authentication_enabled configuration option to true in the Mingle data directory/config/auth_config.yml file, where Mingle data directory is the path to the Mingle data directory.
E.g.
basic_authentication_enabled: true
Setting password format restrictions
If you would like the password format for all your users to be a combination of numbers, letters and punctuation, and enforced strictly, set:
password_format: strict
The default, which is empty, places no restrictions on formats of the password.
