Who is BaseUserMapping_666
In trying to track down a problem I'm having,
GeorgeClark suggested I set
sub MONITOR_ACLS { 1 }
in
Foswiki/Meta.pm
. I've done that, and now I see lines like this in the Apache error log:
[Mon Feb 16 22:51:26 2015] [error] [client 192.168.1.148] Check CHANGE access BaseUserMapping_666 to BAAPT.BrainScanning, referer: http://wiki.cfcl.com/BAAPT/BrainScanning
Who or what is
BaseUserMapping_666
? (And why isn't it matching against
WikiGuest?)

BaseUserMapping _666 is the internal representation of WikiGuest. They are called canonical Userid's or cUID. They are the mappings that come with foswiki regardless of which mapper you use.
- BaseUserMapping _111 is ProjectContributor
- BaseUserMapping _222 is RegistrationAgent
- BaseUserMapping _333 is AdminUser
- BaseUserMapping _666 is WikiGuest
- BaseUserMapping _999 is UnknownUser
They are used internally, you should normally not have to ever reference them in an ACL. --
