How to guarantee, that only authenticated clients are connected to internal XmlRpc server?
I operate some equipment in the unprotected network. I consider use possibility for this XmlRpc. But I want to protect access to management of the equipment at least the password.
Probably, is there a way, alternative XmlRpc?
This is not defined in XMLRPC. Generally, the solution is to pass authentication as one of parameters. This is how I do it in one of my apps (there I am even using different method macto, so that the parameter is 'hidden').
BTW, note that XmlRpc library is now obsolete - new kid is Core/Rpc (handles JsonRPC requests as well).
