TWikiAccessControl 8 - 2001-06-08 - PeterThoeny

Line: 65 to 65
	Leave the `view` script non authenticated in the `.htaccess` file. Enable the `$doRememberRemoteUser` flag in `wikicfg.pm` as described in TWiki Authentication. TWiki will now remember the IP address of an authenticated user. Copy the `view` script to `viewauth` (or better, create a symbolic link)
Changed:
< <	Enable authentication for the `viewauth` script in the `.htaccess` file.
> >	Add `viewauth` to the list of authenticated scripts in the .htaccess file.
	When a user accesses a web where you enabled view restriction, TWiki will redirect from the `view` script to the `viewauth` script once (this hapens only if the user has never edited a topic). Doing so will ask for authentication. The `viewauth` script shows the requested topic if the user could log on and if the user is authorized to see that web. If you enable view restriction for a web, it is recommended to restrict search "all webs" from searching this web. Enable this restriction with the `NOSEARCHALL` variable in its WebPreferences, like: Set NOSEARCHALL = on
