[pmwiki-users] What am I doing wrong re edit password?

Along with an admin password, which works fine, my local/config.php 
file contains:

$DefaultPasswords['edit'] = crypt('noneOfYourBusiness');


I think this is supposed to create a site-wide password, right?

I want everyone to whom I send the unencrypted password to be able to 
get in, and then have full access to both read and edit all pages.

But my phone rang just a few minutes after I sent out the email, and 
my friend said he got the password prompt page, but could not get in.


'Edit' includes 'read', does it not?  I have been assuming Yes.

Or do I have to create different site-wide passwords for both read 
and edit?  In which case, how does a user know which one to enter?



Also,  I have read some references to "locked" passwords.  What does 
this mean?  Is it relevant to my efforts?

Thanks,

Jeb
