Forum OpenACS Q&A: I want my pages to bypass the log-in system...

1: I want my pages to bypass the log-in system...

Posted by txm, just txm on 06/21/02 05:17 PM

For several reasons, I need to build my own user identification system, distinct from what is built-in.

I am making good progresses, but I am hindered by the request processor, which considers that pages at URL like mypackage/admin/something need authentication...

Could anyone tell me if, where and/or how I can disable this "feature" ?

(for the moment, I bypassed it by putting my admin pages in a administration directory, and it might even be possible to leave the pages at that address, but I still am curious !)

It's probably in /tcl/ad-admin.tcl, grep for /admin/ and you will see that there is a proc that 'requires an administrator' for /admin/. You will need to disable that, at least.
