Setting up Internet/intranet clients for anonymous access
To set up Internet/intranet clients for anonymous access, you either set up the Internet Site or the server for anonymous access, and then set up database ACLs to include the entry Anonymous.
About this task
The anonymous setting in the Internet Site document (or Server document) overrides individual database ACLs for anonymous users -- for example, if the database ACL includes an Anonymous entry but the setting in the Internet Site document does not allow anonymous access to the server, clients do not have anonymous access. If you do not allow anonymous access and a user tries to access the server anonymously, the user is prompted to authenticate.
