Authentication mechanishim in publish

[Sam205505050]

Experts,

I have to implement authentication mechanism same as how author instance works. For example, if any user request for any page http://localhost:4503/content/geometrixx/en.html then system should open the page http://localhost:4503/content/geometrixx/en/toolbar/account/login.html and only after successful login sling should redirect to required page. 

I looked into Login Selector Authentication Handler and Sling Authentication Service but it seems there is no configuration here. Could you please let me know your thoughts on how to proceed on this?

You can achieve it using CUG. In the Advanced page properties of en.html; you can select the CUG as 'everyone'; and enter 'http://localhost:4503/content/geometrixx/en/toolbar/account/login.html ' in 'Login page' ; also check the 'enabled' check box. By this; for en.html; as well as its subpages; all users will be redirected to login.html. Please note that this will restrict all users; including the anonymous user as well to access the website.

Thank you for your reply Deepankar, How it will be possible without CUG and how same mechanism works in Author instance?

You can check for anonymous access.

Include this component in header. this component will redirect to login page if there is no session.

Thanks,
