    How to access to the search page in OPAC bypassing the login page

    Procedure:

    2. Create a copy of the "login" file with the BIB database as extension (login-xxx01)
    3. Edit the new $alephe_root/www_f_lng/login-xxx01 file
    4. Delete all the contents leaving only the first two lines, i.e.:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <!-- filename: login-xxx01 -->

    <include>find-b
    6. The "find-b" can be replaced with any other valid value for the "www_login" variable (as set in the $alephe_root/www_server.conf file).
