This is another of these situations where custom navigation mechanisms demonstrate why it is not really sensible to provide default navigation. Although I am not using it in production at present, I had to code up my own navigation for this (i.e. hiding items based on permissions). In regard to NOT finding HTML pages that have authentication on them for anonymous users - this could be a costly exercise if you want to apply the filter at runtime when the list is being displayed. What we do, is let them find the document (we dont index HTML - just our PDFs) and then normal authentication forces them to log in when they get the object. This is true for all our PDFs though - so we didnt have to code anything specific. I am guessing it would work the same for HTML objects. They would all show up - but then you would be forced to authenticate if you selected the link. What you could do for both "protected" and "open" pages is provide a CUSTOM field in your Verity indexing that provided that indicator (so you didnt have to do the coding at display time). See, Verity would have to still index the whole slab of HTML in one collection. Another way to do it would be to have TWO indexing routines and maintain TWO Verity collections (one for the public stuff and one for the authenticated stuff). When the user is authenticated - search both collections. When they aren't - search only the public/open one. If you have more than two the same principle applies. I have used that mechanism in previous CF sites and it works seamlessly. I am not sure how easy it would be to do it using FarCry Verity maintenance though (we maintain our own verity collections independent of FarCry).
