## Edit chart config
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Change the chart's config to disable `allow_anonymous` by setting authentication to `enabled`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml title="values.yaml"
|
|
|
|
|
auth:
|
|
|
|
|
# -- By enabling this, `allow_anonymous` gets set to `false` in the mosquitto config.
|
|
|
|
|
# highlight-next-line
|
|
|
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
echo "password_file /mosquitto/configinc/passwordfile" > passwordconfig.conf
|
|

|
```
|

:::info These commands explained
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Navigate to `/mosquitto/configinc`, the persistent storage location inside the container where the password files go
|
|
|
|
|
- Create a password file. This is interactive. Change `username` to your username. It will ask you to input the password twice
|
|
|
|
|
- Create a config file that points to the password file
|

|
:::caution Restart chart
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Restart the chart so Mosquitto loads the new configuration file.
