Another great post, Vince! Good stuff!

FYI: You can use actually put together "lockdown" functionality for a public facing WSS site without any custom code: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointdevelopment/thread/6f8c6dbe-67d0-4dcf-a03d-3da4171649c8/ This is useful if you've got a hosted WSS site we you can't install anything at all. We used this technique for a public facing WSS site for Microsoft Licensing (http://www.mslicense.com). -John

This is useful if you've got a hosted WSS site we you can't install anything at all. but what if yu havent?

John, That's a great solution if you can't install code, although if you are going to edit default.master then there are many ways to achieve it. Also that approach will not catch pages which do not use default.master (the ones using application.master). Still its much better than nothing. --Vince

i dont understand !!

Well written article - and a great tip! :) You have a type in the line: "Being sealed means you can inherit from them". Don't you mean: "Being sealed means you CAN'T inherit from them" ? - Jakob

essential, and very useful.

That's a great solution if you can't install code,

thanks for sharing this, very insightful! Blogs like these certainly open your eyes and educate people like me.

For someone like me who cannot install code having this kind of information disseminated for free is fantastic. Thank you for taking the time to document this.
