Login panel?

[pawisoon]

Hi there,
Just wondering is there any way to close the privatebin behing login page?
I would like only registered users to use privatebin, instead being accesible by anons.

Any tips if it's already implemented?
Cheers!

PrivateBin itself is fundamentally designed to operate without any concept of users and user permissions (see the Threat Model for an in-depth analysis), but nothing stops you from using a third-party solution to add that layer of functionality, just like with any other non-authenticating web application.

You'd start by restricting the upload, like outline here for nginx, and instead of restricting it by IP and/or requiring credentials, you'd redirect the requests to your authentication solution of choice, which handles the login in any way they chose. But how you'd setup such a solutions and which one to pick is really out of scope for PrivateBin, IMHO.
