hi… I am new to SharePoint and was given the task to administer a SharePoint 2007 site.
The first complaint I have received is that they were able to view the CMS publicly. (e.g. which is http://domainname/contents)
Visitors are landing on the link via a Google search. Although the visitor cannot edit unless they know the credentials. Is there a way that it does not show publicly?
Thanks so much
When you disable anonymous access it will cause a challenge for credentials (otherwise anonymous people can still get in ;)). If it didn’t how would SharePoint know between an anonymous user and one who should be able to access it?
What you probably want to do is set your browser to integrated login (so that the browser will automatically login with your AD credentials).
