Hi Jennifer, In universe.wsgi.ini, you can set the following parameters require_login = True --> no anonymous user can access your Galaxy allow_user_creation = False --> users can not register, only an admin can create an account for them (under admin/manage users). Tell me if you have other questions related to this matter Sincerely David

Hello,
I've just set up my own instance of Galaxy running in AWS and had a security question that I couldn't find an answer to on the wiki.
I'd like to prevent people from hitting my public Amazon IP and using Galaxy. Is t! here a way to prevent anonymous users from accessing any part of Galaxy except a login prompt and have user registration be invite-only (or perhaps turn it off completely once a handful of accounts have been created)?
Thanks,
-Joel
