Hi Ludovic,

This is kind of a feature..
When the skin is wiki-based (as opposed to the 'default' skin stored in
the file-system), you can't neither 'always authentication on view',
neither forbid viewing of the skin page..
Either fallback to the default skin (in the preferences), or deactivate
'always authentication on view' and give view rights to all users to the
skin page
I have to admit that I still don't really understand
the details of access rights concepts in XWiki. There
are many places where one can configure some parts
of wiki access rights and as a whole it's a little bit
confusing to me ... :-(
I wanted to create a Wiki which can only be used by
authenticated users. That's why I had the setting of
"Always authenticate on viewing" of the "Parameters"
section of XWiki.XWikiPreferences to "yes"
I now changed that to "No" and noticed that users still
have to authenticate before they can view any content
of the wiki. Also, the CSS problem on the login page
is still there. Perhaps users do not have the necessary
view rights? But I have given the XWiki.XWikiAllGroup
"view" rights on the XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights level...
What does the "Always authenticate on viewing" parameter do,
anyway?
I also tried to change the skin configuration, but I haven't
really figured how I should do this. First, I had the skin
"XWiki.MySkin" configured (XWiki preferences, section "Skin",
attribute "Skin"). Lacking a better idea, I changed that to
the value "default" (is that the right value? There is no
list or drop-down menu where one can choose the right value).
With the skin setting of "default" it _looks_ like the CSS
problem is gone, though I'm not really sure as sometimes old
cookie settings and cached pages in the browser invalidate
my test results. I need firther testing I guess...
A lot of questions, some more grey hairs... ;-)
