Masterview users - Mar 2007 - Configure admin pages to allow access from non-localhost

The documentation on the website says:

Built-in local machine check (local_request?) 	Defines custom MV Admin
authorization method and module.
Automatically loads app/masterview/admin_auth_mixin.rb if present.

    config.admin_auth_mixin = {
      :file => ''admin_auth_mixin'', # require file in
app/masterview
      :file_loc => nil  # :RAILS_ROOT or root dir path for alt load load
      :module => :MasterViewAdminAuthMixin, # mixin module name
    }

    see examples/rails_app_admin_auth/auth_local_request_mixin.rb for
more details

But this file doesn''t exist in my examples folder.

What should admin_auth_mixin do to allow access from non-local hosts?

Thanks
Ed

I have to check the build to see you are not getting the file.

The file is attached. Let me know if you need any additional info. You can
basically change out the logic in allow_access? to do whatever checking you
want. It is mixed into to the controller so it has access to all of the
controller''s data.
