User authentication is not working properly

[lakshanwd]

Grafana dashboard can be accesses even after logged out

Steps to reproduce:
log in to grafana
log out from grafana
remove /login from the url and hit enter
go to dashboards

Auth is disabled - see #153 on how to enable it

@zeitlinger, thanks for answering.
Will there be a fix so that the variable in the environment tag works, or will this workaround always be necessary?

[zeitlinger]

non authenticated access is a feature, not a bug.

I'm open for a PR with an opt-in flag for authentication.

For example, put an if around

docker-otel-lgtm/docker/run-grafana.sh

Lines 5 to 6 in 4beb095

	export GF_AUTH_ANONYMOUS_ENABLED=true
	export GF_AUTH_ANONYMOUS_ORG_ROLE=Admin

- guarded by another env var

See https://github.com/grafana/docker-otel-lgtm/blob/main/README.md#configuration

@zeitlinger, many thanks for your response again.

Anyways, isn't it possible to use a feature like this?

image: grafana/otel-lgtm:latest
restart: always
environment:
  GF_AUTH_ANONYMOUS_ENABLED: false
  GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER: ${OTEL_LGTM_ADMIN_USER}
  GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD: ${OTEL_LGTM_ADMIN_PASSWORD}

[zeitlinger]

Yes, that should work

[MartinezAvellan]

But unfortunately it didn't work...

[zeitlinger]

please ask the grafana team in that case
