Question

I use ALLOWTOPICVIEW to restrict view access to a particular page. Previous versions of that page are NOT restricted. When a logged in user tries to access a page and fails they get a message like "No Permission to read topic YouCantSeeIt - perhaps you need to log in?". They can then click on the previous version link and see that page. Any ideas on how to plug that hole?

Answer

This is a known bug with Cairo. I believe it is addressed in the next version of TWiki.
