Glen Mazza commented on ROL-1983:
---------------------------------

OK, I checked, you're correct that I have to log into my blog first.

But right now, just as a vanilla JRoller blog owner (not a blog administrator), 
by logging into my JRoller account I can see a shortened list of users (JRoller 
has 1000s more people, mostly old and unused accounts though):  
http://www.jroller.com/roller-ui/authoring/userdata/ .  Of course, JRoller uses 
Roller 3.1, so maybe this doesn't hold with 5.1 (I suspect it's the same issue 
there though). But I should not have access to this information, because I 
don't have access to the User Admin page (i.e., I'm not a blog admin), all the 
other blog owners and their email addresses are none of my business -- the 
above link should 404 for me.

Another problem with the above implementation is that I won't see *all* users 
(as I should), but just the first 50 of them.  This makes User Admin 
unfunctionable, as you can't alter accounts beyond those first 50.

> stop using servlet call for user administration

> For some reason the Roller user list is presently implemented via a servlet, 
> allowing the list of blog users and email addresses to be publicly accessible 
> for those accessing the URL.  Goal here is to shut off the servlet and use a 
> traditional Struts/JPA method of listing the users on the page, perhaps 
> similar to our blog entry listing screen.
