Currently I'm using NGINX for the web login+password to the device.
However there's a double login: first, have to login with NGINX, then have to immediately login with OpenWrt.
Is there a way to bypass the OpenWrt login? Such as, merely deactivating it, or passing the NGINX credentials to OpenWrt so it thinks it's logged in already?
Assuming you use nginx as reverse proxy in front of uhttpd, you need to pass-through the authentication http header, then LuCI will auto-logon. This assumes that username and password match your system credentials (root and SSH password). If not, you can adjust the login in /etc/config/rpcd
heyy im pretty new to OpenWRT and NGINX is there any solution to this problem this is sort of exactly what i want to do ( sorry to revive a 3 year old thread )
