Hi - have a look at TWikiAccessControl which explains how to do this. Hope this helps.

You basically need to authenticate the view script (and possibly other scripts as well. If you are using Apache add this to the twiki/bin/.htaccess file:

<Files "view">
       require valid-user
</Files>

Do the same for other scripts if needed.
