See TracFineGrainedPermissions for more details. 7 9 8 10 Non-authenticated users accessing the system are assigned the name "anonymous". Assign permissions to the "anonymous" user to set privileges for anonymous/guest users. The parts of Trac that a user does not have the privileges for will not be displayed in the navigation. 9 10 11 In addition to these privileges, users can be granted additional individual rights in effect when authenticated and logged into the system. All logged in users belong to the virtual group "authenticated", which inherits permissions from "anonymous". 11 12 12 13 == Available Privileges == 13 14 14 To enable all privileges for a user, use the `TRAC_ADMIN` permission.
