Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike

Thanks for the response. I actually need to remove just Guest Home and not really Company Home. Should that be fine?
Also can you please point to specific files which I might have to modify to remove Guest Home.

thanks
Natasha

In the source tree:
projects / repository / config / alfresco / bootstrap

The Guest Home is created as parts of spaces.xml

Thanks,
Mike

Otherwise you can only desactivate the Guest account in authentiction-services-context :

<property name="allowGuestLogin">
            <value>false</value>
        </property>‍‍‍

and remove "consumer" permission on guest folder.
