Hi,
Is there a way to subscribe to RSS feed in a totally protected XWiki (only
log-in page described to anonymous)? E.g. with MS Outlook?
I used common feed list approach described here
http://blog.jonudell.net/2007/01/23/a-screencast-about-common-feeds-in-vist…
I'm able to see items when the feed is imported to outlook the first time,
but then I do not get the updates.
And here's
http://blog.jonudell.net/2007/03/27/authenticated-rss-feeds/
where I found people discussing subscription to a password protected feed.

Other than configuring the feed reader to use a certain username and
password, you must also alter a bit the RSS URL by appending
&basicauth=1 as a query string parameter.
For example, for the blog feed, use:
http://xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Blog/GlobalBlogRss?xpage=plain&basicauth=1
instead of:
http://xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Blog/GlobalBlogRss?xpage=plain
Does this solve your problem?
