calibre-server: Password protect the server.
$ calibre-server --username ${username} --password ${password}
try on your machine

The command "calibre-server --username ${username} --password ${password}" is used to start the Calibre server with a specified username and password.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "calibre-server": This part of the command launches the Calibre server, which is a program used for managing and sharing e-books.
  • "--username ${username}": This option specifies the username to be used for authentication when accessing the Calibre server. You need to replace "${username}" with the actual username you want to set.
  • "--password ${password}": This option sets the password for the specified username. Similarly, you need to replace "${password}" with the actual password you want to set.

By providing the "--username" and "--password" options followed by the desired values, you can secure access to your Calibre server so that only users with the correct credentials can connect to and use it.
