What is troubling you?

Is there a clear guide on how to set up access lists? I'd just like to require a username and password to gain access to one of my proxy hosts (no IP addresses or ranges), but I can't figure out how to do it when playing around with it.

hi, i've got some problems to understand how access lists function in npm, but basically you create an acess list, under details you put the name of the list and tell if it will be satisfied by any requirements or 2 of them user/password and iprestiction, into the authorization tab you create the basic auth users and passwords, in Acess you specify a directive bypass(if satisfies any was toggled)/restict the auth by ip or network.
i have noted that after you change the access list you have to remove and put again in the proxy host so the update will be effective.

Thanks, I was wondering why there was no change. This is still the case.
