Hello Daniel, in DSpace it is possible to define policies for the item view and the bitstream view (and some more).
During ingest the item derives its policies from the settings DEFAULT_ITEM_READ and DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ of the owning collection. Per default this is set to anonymous read. During collection creation there is an initial question "New items should be publicly readable " already checked. If you uncheck it, you will be asked to select the eperson/group who will be permitted to read. This will affect both settings DEFAULT_ITEM_READ and DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ at once. After having created a collection you can change these settings via Edit Collection -> Authorization. So in order for future items in your repository to not be publically available make sure the collections got the proper defaults. Note, changing the DEFAULT_X_READ settings of a collection will NOT change the authorizations for already submitted items. In order to change these you got to change the authorizations of the item/bitstream as admin. There is an advanced authorization/wildcard tool in the administrative section. Hope that helps Claudia Jürgen Am 05.08.2010 11:25, schrieb Daniel Francis: > > Hi All, > > Please can anyone help on how to prevent anonymous users so that they > won't download the materials. > > Regards, > > Daniel Francis. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the > Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share > of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
