title: How to activate authentication in Apache Airflow
body: <p>Airflow version- 1.9.0</p>
  
  <p>I have installed apache airflow and post configuration i am able to run sample DAG's with sequential executor.</p>
  
  <p>Also, created new sample user which i can see under Admin > Users.</p>
  
  <p>But unable to get the login window/screen when we visit webserver adress at :8080/ it directly opens up Airflow webserver with admin user. 
  It will be great help if anyone can provide some info on how to activate login screen/page, so that user credentials can be used for logging into webserver.</p>
