Yes. That's the purpose of the Guest Account. No other Account can have IWP access if you wish to use this setup. If other Accounts do, users can still connect as Guest, but they must specifically utilize and select that option on the IWP Home Page.

There is a method to have both an automatic Guest access as well as credentialed Access. It is complex. Do you want to have a discussion of that processs?

The way I do this is to have two diffrent UI files that access the data. One is set for Guest only use; the other is set for credentialed only use.

Each UI file is mapped to a different IP address. Putting a link somewhere with the appropriate CGI for the Guest access UI file causes it to open without asking for credentials.
