How do I configure the portal to allow both anonymous and LDAP or Membership Logins?
I want my portal's content to be publically accessable, to allow anonymous users to browse the content without the ability to modify layouts, content, etc.
But I can't figure out how to make the portal completely skip the login menu page. If I enable any modules besides the Anonymous module, I get the login menu. If I disable all modules but anonymous, I get a login module denied error message when I post to the login servlet from one of my pages.
What do I need to do? My frustration with the lack of decent documentation of most of the features of this product is growing by the second.

When opening up the administrative console
(http://localhost:8080/console?func=frameset) and looking at the source
it shows the following:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>iPlanet Portal Server 3.0 Administration Console</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER="no" COLS="*" ROWS="110,*" BORDER=0>
<FRAME BORDER=0 SCROLLING="no" MARGINHEIGHT=10 SRC="/admin/top.html">
<FRAMESET COLS="250,*" BORDER=0>
<FRAME SRC="/console?func=directNav" NAME="navigatorFrame">
<FRAME SRC="/console?func=frameAdmin" NAME="adminFrame">
</FRAMESET>
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
Where are the html files located that the console servlet is including?
The problem that I am encountering is this:
I need to set the "Primary Document Directory" in the iPlanet webserver
to something other than - <ipsbase>/public_html which seems to be the
default configuration. When I switched the doc root to /foo/bar/ I
noticed no problems with the portal server until I tried to enter the
admin console. My browser reported back file not found errors for each
of the frame pages that are included in the HTML snippet above. I
understand that by changing the document root that the servlet no longer
has a context of /admin/top.html but does anyone have thoughts as to
what is going on and how to resolve this?
thanks
