Moss public facing site login

  Asked By: Tapasvi Rai         Date: Jun 15, 2010      Category: MOSS      Views: 641

is there a way to completely prevent login for a public facing Moss site? I have extended the web application so I have separate authentication providers and what I would like to do is prevent any login ability to the public facing side and all content authoring be completed through extended web app which is only available internally.

I wonder if in the Web.config file you could explicitly revoke login  for all users, with something like <deny users="*" />.

Using the example from the following MSDN link:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8aeskccd.aspx


<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="admins"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Haven't ever tried it on a SharePoint site. Let us know if it works.
