User Access via browser

Hello Everyone,

I have been trying to setup the orthanc dicom system in a test environment using docker. I have been able to get the server service running. I am able to upload some sample dicom images and i can view but this is from the admin or server side.

The eventual “production system” is expected to give doctors and other specialists the ability to access images that are produced by 2 or more modalities and are stored in the systems. This means i need to give each user (doctors & Specialists) user access and the ability to do so via a browser. This is the part i have struggled with.

I am new with docker, linux and quite a bit of this. I have tried a bunch of different thing and configurations. I have looked through YouTube to see if there is a step by step demo to follow but i have not found anything.

Can anyone point me to a set of step by step instructions to help me get the user to be able to access the stored images in a browser?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

NM

Hello,

I guess you are looking for the “RegisteredUsers” configuration option of Orthanc:
https://book.orthanc-server.com/users/configuration.html

// The list of the registered users. Because Orthanc uses HTTP
// Basic Authentication, the passwords are stored as plain text.
“RegisteredUsers” : {
// “alice” : “alicePassword”
},

Evidently, in a production system, you should protect your Orthanc server by HTTPS encryption. Using Apache or nginx as a reverse proxy to Orthanc is the recommended way of doing so:
