Hello,

You can use @auth* decorators to force authentication to single functions, 
but how you can force authentication to your whole application?.

I use this, just after defining auth:

if not auth.is_logged_in():
    # avoid infinite recursion
    if request.url != auth.settings.login_url:
        # after authentication go to the intended url
        redirect(auth.settings.login_url + '?_next=' + request.env.
request_uri)

Any better aproach?.

You can also exclude certain controllers and/or functions:

if not auth.is_logged_in():
    if request.controller != 'util' and request.function != 
'change_language':
        # avoid infinite recursion
        if request.url != auth.settings.login_url:
            # after authentication go to the intended url
            redirect(auth.settings.login_url + '?_next=' + request.env.
request_uri)

Regards.
