Hi Jonathan, When you have policies that start to cover resources available via "API-A" (access-oriented stuff), I think you generally need to make sure that Fedora is configured to require authentication across the board on API-A. The web admin client will bring up a prompt if Fedora is configured to authenticate the resource. Having a policy that covers a resource doesn't automatically trigger Fedora to require authentication on it, unfortunately.
It sounds like you might have installed with API-A authentication not turned on (you can check in your $FEDORA_HOME/install/install.properties file for the "apia.auth.required" flag). If that's the case, that would explain the problem. I don't know off hand how to switch to requiring AuthN on API-A without re-installing Fedora...but it should be possible by making tweaks in $FEDORA_HOME/server/config (as of Fedora 3.5). If it's an earlier version of Fedora, you might need to modify the webapp's web.xml file to do it. - Chris On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 4:33 PM, Jonathan Green <jonat...@discoverygarden.ca> wrote: > Hi All. > > I have a repository were certain collections have XACML policies restricting > APIA to certain roles.
