I believe that Joe needs to be given some level of access for him to be able to see the collections, and joe should always be required to give his/her/its password to access any collection.

I am running standalone mode, have two solr cores defined: email1, and email2. Since the 'blockUnknown' is set to false, everyone should have access to any unprotected resource. As you can see, I have three users defined: joe, solr and terry (the latter two having an admin role). What I expect to happen is for user joe (who is not an admin) to be able to access core emails2 without being challenged for his credentials. But, user joe should also be challenged and not allowed to access emails1. But solr appears to ignore the "collections" portion of the permission - it denies joe access to both cores. Is this a bug (in that auth doesn't work properly in 6.6.0 standalone), or am I (once again) missing something?
