Im trying to get salt-api working for the first time locally
I've added
rest_cherrypy:
port: 8000
disable_ssl: true
external_auth:
pam:
dave:
- .*
to my master config, stopped both master and api service and started again, ran the command
curl -sSk http://localhost:8000/login -H 'Accept: application/x-yaml' -d username=dave -d password=dave -d eauth=pam
But I'm getting 401s in the response. The API log looks like
2023-07-31 10:31:16,274 [cherrypy.error :213 ][INFO ][5132] [31/Jul/2023:10:31:16] ENGINE Bus STARTING

N.B The user "dave" definitely exists as a linux user on the VM im running this on (I assuming that is how a user is created as the docs dont specify how to create)
