Desktop Edition

Hi, 
I am trying to setup a somewhat limited wiki using moinmoin

DesktopEdition. The problem I have is on how to stop new
users to 
register or only allow new users when approved by an
administrator. 
Is there a way to do that? The reason is that I want to
limit some 
parts to only registered users and as long as anyone can
register 
that is not good.

Please keep the CC as am I not on the list (yet).

You are right about one or two users. But there seems to be
no way to keep
it that way. I want to be able to access it not only from
internal net but
also from outside (ie when travelling). As soon as I open
the firewall to
allow access to the wiki, I also open for anyone to register
and thus use
the wiki freely. Maybe I should read on how to set up a
proper moin.

Thanks anyway.

I am doing something similar in that I want to restrict
access to the wiki
from everyone except a few people. However I am not running
the
DesktopEdition.

The way I have this set up is to create a 'TrustedGroup'
with the login
names of the people who can access the site. Each user in
the list must have
a valid Login username. As the 'admin' you can set this up
in advance.

My acl's are set up like this:

acl_rights_default =
u"TrustedGroup:read,write,delete,revert All:"
acl_rights_before =
u"DanielKlein:read,write,delete,revert,admin"

I do not have 'acl_enabled = 1'. I'm not sure what this does
as it seems to
work without it.

I guess if this configuration is wrong then someone on this
list will let me
know (politely I hope <grin>).
