Securing sites in SmiServer

If you are hosting multiple Smi sites in a single SmiServer instance, you might want to password protect each site to prevent other websites from looking at the reports of your site, especially when the Smi sites hosted in SmiServer are containing data from different customers. To password protect an Smi site, you need to do two things:

1. Add the attribute "password" to the <site /> element in SmiServer.exe.config and give it a strong password.
2. Add the attribute "password" to the <site /> element with the same site name in Smartsite.ManagementInformation.config and give it the same password.

This password protection prevents people from being able to access a site in SmiServer by guessing the site name.
