I just tested it on one library and it actually does not work.  I set the
access requirement to NOT GUEST in SCFG for the whole library.  When I then
surf to it, without being logged on, it still lets me access the library,
go to a file area, and download a file.

Nelgin's idea of putting it in the webctrl.ini file does seem to turn it
completely off in Webv4, so I will use that.

I will play around with the other interface and see if I can figure out how
to turn it off there.
