Ok I will try that.

But what do you mean by "all interaction needs authentication"? Will I now have problems using the remotes (JRemote or Gizmo) that I have on every tablet and phone in the house?

They'll need to be told the credentials as well.

AndrewFG:
Ok. I turned on credentials on the MC server options and it now works again.

Just for info: I notice that you also added the commands to Sleep, and ShutDown the MC server on your new "Panel" page; and these commands seem to work just fine without authentication. So you need to be consistent here I think..

Panel doesn't do anything but call MCWS.

AndrewFG:
Ok. Just for the avoidance of doubt: When I navigate to the hard wired MCWS link to shut down the PC, the browser pops up a password login screen the first time the link is used. And so I assumed that when I press the shutdown button in Panel, it would also pop up a login screen. But it didn't. Is that because the Panel shutdown button is the same URL as the hard wired MCWS link, and so the credentials had already been cached in the browser for that URL?
