I've just installed codestriker 1.9.7, and it has a "Log In" link on the Topic List page that isn't documented in the manual and doesn't show up in the manual's screen shots. I was hoping that it could be used to restrict use codestriker to a set of users that have ids/passwords assigned, but it doesn't appear to do that. So 1) What's it for? and 2) is there a way to restrict use to a set of users? (i.e. anybody who types the right URL will find the codestriker page, how do I restrict who can read/use it?)
Thanks
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Check out the codestriker.conf file and read the comment above the $admin_users setting. This is mentioned in the manual as well - but yes, the screenshots are way out of date.

Thanks, I did read that, but the comment suggests that it is only used to restrict create/edit/delete projects, it doesn't mention topics. Plus it looks like it lets anybody create a new id, so it doesn't really meet my needs. I'll have to use Apache authentication.

In theory, once you have all users created, you can change the following two files:
lib/Codestriker/Http/Method/CreateNewUserMethod.pm
lib/Codestriker/Http/Method/AddNewUserMethod.pm
from this:
sub requires_authentication {
return 0;
}
to this:
sub requires_authentication {
return 1;
}
This will prevent new users being allowed to be created.
