[support] Development Site -- Keep the Public Out

[Andrew Hankinson]

I would imagine this means that everyone would have to be logged in  
as Site Admin. (UID 1)

You can try going to access control and removing the permission for  
'access content' for anonymous users.  This should direct them  
automatically to a login page.
