Adding Basic Auth to Forge
make the username and password http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/
admin:$apr1$wLiZDI74$/D64sfIdn74kHc6F.76Qv/
And save it in a file called, for example, htpass
Now scp -v htpass forge@your_server:~/
Go to forge and find the site and click “Edit Nginx Configuration”
Now in there just add these lines
auth_basic "Restricted Area";
auth_basic_user_file /home/forge/htpass;
As seen below
I think that will restart/reload Nginx, if does not go to the page that list your “Server Details” and restart there
