Upgraded to 288. Same issues.

My IIS Config:

WebRoot = Intranet

VirtualDir = flexwiki

Anonymous Access to flexwiki is unchecked. Integrated Windows Auth is
checked.

Authentication in wiki.config
  <authentication mode="Windows" />
  <authorization>
    <allow users="*" /> 
  </authorization>
  <identity impersonate="true" />

Default NameSpace = IBSWiki, anyone is allowed to edit. Domain Users
added to ACL's, and no other ACL's changed for this namespace, i.e.
IUSR_HOST, IIS_WPG.

NameSpace to protect = AdminWiki, removed ALL users from root namespace
directory, added Supervisors group, Domain Admins, local Administrators,
reset ownership, and replace permissions down recursively.

Log in as ordinary user, with only Domain Users group association, and
am allowed to enter AdminWiki, click Edit, but prompted for alternate
credentials when attempting to save. So I am protecting the contents
from writing, but not from viewing.

In addition to modifying the ACL's at the file level, should I also be
adding something like this to the flexwiki.config?

<AuthorizationRules>
                 <Rule Type="Allow" Action="Read" Principal="roll:supervisors" 
/>
                <Rule Type="Allow" Action="Edit" Principal="roll:supervisors" />
                <Rule Type="Deny" Action="Read" Principal="all" />
        </AuthorizationRules>

If so, where the devil are the rolls set, and how?

If I'm in a Windows Domain environment, does the wiki auth module know
to prefix the group with MyDomain\ , or do I have to add this bit?

My experience with other Wiki products is there is a topic with users
listed like this:
Topic = supervisors
Contents:
jcroson
bsmith
anotheruser

Sorry for so many questions, but I've failed to find documentation on
this anywhere on the FlexWiki site, but have read and re-read:
FlexWikiSecurity, FlexWikiAuthentication , and FlexWikiAuthorization .

Thanks in advance.
