Securtiy Settings in AppFuse

This page is intended to be a catch-all for security related configurations in AppFuse. Most of the security settings are found in one file /metadata/web/web-security.xml. By default, all actions require a login except the PasswordHintAction and SignupAction. But only actions are protected. So all static content, or other resource mappings that don't match the pattern *.html do not require a login to access.

Allowing an action to be accessed without a login.
