abの基本認証

apachebenchで性能測定。テストサイトで実験的なことをしてから本番機で実装するんですが、テストサイトでの性能測定するときにabを使う。テストサイトは基本認証が効いているのでabでも基本認証を付けないといけない。manページを見ると、

NAME

SUMMARY
       ab  is  a  tool for benchmarking your Apache Hypertext Transfer
       Protocol (HTTP) server. It is designed to give you  an  impres-
       sion  of  how  your  current Apache installation performs. This
       especially shows you how many requests per second  your  Apache
       installation is capable of serving.

OPTIONS
       -A auth-username:password
              Supply  BASIC  Authentication credentials to the server.
              The username and password are separated by  a  single  :
              and  sent on the wire base64 encoded. The string is sent
              regardless of whether the server  needs  it  (i.e.,  has
              sent an 401 authentication needed).

• Aにユーザ名とパスワードをコロンでつないで与えてやればいいようです。

ってことでやってみる。

# ab -A hoge:fuga -c 100 -n 100 http://www.example.com

ちなみに-Aのあとの空白はなくてもOK。

# ab -Ahoge:fuga -c 100 -n 100 http://www.example.com
