See if "Everybody" or "Guest" have permissions. Generally speaking, you're looking for ids with access which don't require authentication. For pre-defined groups, this comes down to the two I mentioned. Theoretically, others could be created that fit this definition but limit access to just those within a defined group. I haven't tested the notion. It's just an idea that seems workable. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
