I just installed Mint and am loving it. Well done, Shaun!
The only downfall I see is that I can’t let my clients view the stats without giving them my password so I plan to just do a .htaccess Authentication module and tell Mint to let anyone in.
My question is will this adversely affect the way Mint communicates with haveamint.com?
If it does I can easily allow connections from 72.10.44.23 if that is the static IP of the server.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
Also, I’m curious as to how frequently “Mint Man” will be visiting my site ;)
If you are planning on just letting anyone in then simply using the Enable open mode from within Mint would be your best option.
@Sam,
My goal is to only let my clients view the stats. Since I don’t want to give them my password to Mint, I plan to enable open-mode as you’ve suggested, and then protect requests that are not /mint/?js using a .htaccess file.
I’m curious if this will cause problems with the Activation server.
It won’t affect the activation server. Mint will still be able to check for updates. But you cannot htauth the directory because your visitors need access to the Mint directory in order for Mint to record their visits. Mint is not a multi-user system.

As frequently as you can enter the Easter Egg command. ;)
