## Problem/Question

I have tried to setup and simple authentication for hosted netdata dashboard, i tried ngnix and h20 documentation in the [learn.netdata.cloud/docs](https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/running-the-netdata-agent-behind-a-reverse-proxy/). Even after creating this, i can still load the dashboard with authentication, any idea how to fix this.  
Even the logs looks clean but i cant setup simple authentication.
