Enabling anonymous access to a hosted organization's database
To make a hosted organization's database available to anonymous Web site users, add "Anonymous" to the ACL file. Adding Anonymous to the ACL file does not expose all of the hosted organization's data to anonymous users. For example, anonymous Web users cannot browse a hosted organization's directory because browsing is disabled.

Do not confuse an ACL file, which provides security for the hosted organization itself, with a database ACL, which controls the access that server, users, and groups have to a database.

Sample ACL file

The content of a sample ACL file for a hosted organization named company1 with Anonymous access is shown below.


In addition to modifying the ACL file, modify the hosted organization's database ACL to allow anonymous access to the database.
