!!Permissions
On some sites, objects shown in a feed need authentication. The setting 'RSS basic Authentication' can be used to allow a local authentication for the feed.

With this setting, you can use an url where you give your login password to access such rss
{CODE()}
http://joe:password@localhost/tiki/tiki-calendars_rss.php?ver=2
{CODE}

tw >=5.0
For rss readers that do not accept the above syntax, you can use
{CODE()}
http://localhost/tiki/tiki-calendars_rss.php?ver=2&user=joe&pass=password
{CODE}

Otherwise with this setting and if no login information is provided , a login popup will be displayed. This will log you in tikiwiki.
__Warning__: For this last case, as it is an http authentication, if the user logs out from tikiwiki, il will not be logged from the feed view until he closes his browser or window.

tiki>=5.0
Permissions like tiki_p_wiki_view_ref, tiki_p_blog_post_view_ref, tiki_p_blog_view_ref ... can also be useful for a site that needs to be log-in to see the objects but where the feed can be seen by anonymous
