Oh, wait, that's us :) Thanks for linking!\n\nSo, let's try this again...\n\n1) It is possible to force [IOPlex](http://ioplex.com \"IOPlex\") Jespa (the library that actually does NTLM authenticaton under the bonnet) to install an anonymous identitiy into the session on logout. This will prevent users from getting logged in again immediately after explicit logout, but it will also remove the possibility of logging back in again by just clicking on anything outside of logout page. If you do want to go this route, just add/change this in Jespa filter definition in web.xml:\n\n\\<init-param\\> \n\\<param-name\\>http.parameter.anonymous.name\\</param-name\\> \n\\<param-value\\>logout\\</param-value\\> \n\\</init-param\\> \n\\<init-param\\> \n\\<param-name\\>http.parameter.logout.name\\</param-name\\> \n\\<param-value\\>logout\\</param-value\\> \n\\</init-param\\> \n\\<init-param\\> \n\\<param-name\\>fallback.location\\</param-name\\> \n\\<param-value\\>/login.action?logout=true\\</param-value\\> \n\\</init-param\\>\n\nThis tells Jespa 3 things:\n\n* if you see logout parameter in the URL, do logout.\n* If you see logout parameter in the URL install anonymous identity\n* if for some reason authentication fails - go to login form and install anonymous identity while you are at it\n\n2) This specific use case is valid IMHO, disabled users should NOT be logged in into Jira/Confluence even if they pass NTLM authentication.

[ { "author": "Phillip Ponzer [Cprime]", "body": "Alright, after a good day of work I've managed to come up with a three-part solution:\n\nSince this is as a result of the UWC working its conversion magic (thank goodness we have UWC!), \"illegal\" characters were getting removed. The problem with this is that colons, semi-colons, and forward-slashes are all part of the standard Starteam link. This was overcame by \"escaping\" those illegal characters. Like so:\n\n```\n[settings.illegalcharmap.properties]# : (colon)illegalchar.colon.replacement=\\:# ; (semi-colon)illegalchar.semicolon.replacement=\\;# / (forward slash)illegalchar.forwardslash.replacement=\\/# @ (at)illegalchar.at.replacement=\\@\n```\n\nWhy the ampersand (@)? We'll get to that later...\n\nThis got us as far as getting the UWC to convert the Starteam links into something that's copy/pastable into Starteam. Although it did chop off the prefixed \"starteam://\" from the link itself, it was still somewhat \"followable.\"\n\nHere's the next bit of UWC regular expression magic:\n\n```\n[converter.mediawiki.properties]Mediawiki.0411.starteam.java-regex=\\[starteam://(\\S+)+\\s*(.*)\\]{replace-with}$2: [$1@starteam]\n```\n\nThis regular expression will take all bracketed links prefixed with \"starteam://\" and throw it into a Starteam shortcut link.\n\nA shortcut link, you say? Why yes, a shortcut link!\n\n\n\nYou can get to this as a Confluence Admin by going to Browse-\\>Confluence Admin, and click on \"Shortcut Links\" under \"Configuration.\" In effect, this is why we needed the ampersand to be escaped back in the \\[settings.illegalcharmap.properties\\] file.\n\nSo, what does this do? Well, the help text just above the shortcut link table explains it pretty well. But pretty much what it does is it takes your Starteam link, prefixes it with \"starteam://\" and wraps the link tag around the text \"Starteam Link\".\n\nSo, typing in \\[starteam://my.starteam.link/a:12345;b:67890 Software Plans Summary\\] in a WikiMedia page will give you the hyperlinked text \"Software Plans Summary\".\n\nWhen shoved through the UWC (with the options from above), you get the following:\n\n```\nSoftware Plans Summary: [my.starteam.link/a:12345;b:67890@starteam]\n```\n\nWhich simply ends up looking like this on a Confluence page:\n\n```\nSoftware Plans Summary: Starteam Link \n```\n", "comments": [ { "author": "Phillip Ponzer [Cprime]", "body": "I've raised a ticket for this issue here:\n\n<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-24700>\n" } ] }, { "author": "Andrew Frayling", "body": "Hi Phillip,\n\nIt might be worth raising a ticket at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) to ask which links Confluence strips out.

You're using OnDemand, and I don't think that supports code changes like that\n3. I'm not sure why you would be that worried about the bar - it's useful for navigation, and if you have your permissions set up correctly, no-one will be able to see the stuff you don't want them to. Removing the bar is not the way to stop your anonymous user from visiting other spaces, because they can get to them in several other ways. The bar is clever enough to hide things you have protected (because giving a link to something a user can't actually use is pointless), but you need to protect them properly irrespective of the navigation options on the header. An example - if your public documentation is at <http://yourspace/display/DOCS,> then I already know I can go to <http://yourspace/spaces/editspace.action?key=DOCS> to see the space admin pages.

Usually the error you're seeing is down to one of the following:\n\n\\* The database doesn't exist\n\n\\* The database exists, but the username/password you're providing is incorrect\n\n\\* The database exists, but it's not empty\n\n\\* There's a typo in the JDBC connection URL\n\n\\* There's a network/firewall problem between the Confluence server and the DB server\n\nAre any of the above likely candidates for your situation?\n\nAndrew.\n", "comments": null } ]
