We have a staging server where clients can review the websites we've built.
We protect this by disabling anonymous access.
However this seems to be interfering with scheduled tasks because they will try running without authentication. (it would be handy if the umbracoLog mentioned the status code instead of just saying 'true' or 'false'
I don't really want to change the application as it's only for UAT, and not for production that we need to implement security. But I could add some functionality if the same release won't cause issues in production.
Anyone have any brilliant ideas?
My Ideas all involve chaning how umbraco works:
scheduled tasks could be configured with a usename / password
scheduled tasks could be configured with an assembly / method as an alternative to a url.
The solution I used was to switch to windows Scheduled Tasks and use wget to GET the page. note: version 1.10.2 of wget works with NTLM whereas later versions of wget do not. this allows me to specify username & password.
