I've installed some software, namely, a continuous integration (CI) server (Jenkins) on a Mac Mini running Lion Server. The server, by default, runs from port 8080 on local host via the url: http://localhost:8080
. However, when I try to access the page it seems to be protected by Basic Auth and it asks me for a name and a password.
Granted, I never set that Basic Auth and I've been told I can remove the authentication and use that port for the CI server. However, I'm hard pressed to find an .htaccess
file anywhere that sets the Basic Auth? If it's not set in an .htaccess
file then where would Basic Auth be set?

You might try looking in
/etc/apache2/sites/
That was the directory in 10.6; in 10.5, it was/etc/httpd/sites
On 10.5 and 10.6 server, the server app can be used to set access restrictions, and that is the location where the config files are written.
If your web setup is not complicated, the filename may be similar to
0000_any_8080_(HOST).conf
