Summary: Document admin access mode
Key: GEOS-5089
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-5089
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Task
Components: Security
Reporter: Justin Deoliveira
Assignee: Justin Deoliveira
Users upgrading to 2.2 will run into problem if they have opened up the rest api to be accessed anonymously or by the non-admin user. Now with the admin access mode the default is to provide admin privileges only to role administrator. The upshot is that the user will no longer see any workspaces because they don't have admin privileges on them any longer.
This should be clearly documented for those upgrading to 2.2.
