Description

I am using Basic authentication to protect my entire Trac environment. As such, when a user first tries to view Trac, they are forced to login. This works just fine as the string 'logged in as <username>' shows up. However, because the web browser always posts the authentication credentials when it requests a page, this user can *never* logout. In this case it makes sense to have a flag where you can disable the 'logout' link (and for that matter the 'login' link).

Well, I agree that there's an issue with the logout, but I think the solution is to fix the logout, not disable the link. I've started work on this and have opened ticket #791 for it.

In spite of this ticket being closed wontfix, this did get addressed starting in 0.11. See TracNavigation for details. In short, you add this to your config:

logout = disabled
