Okay, time to try and clarify a few assumptions from our end:

A Silva page will only show 'access controlled' DL links if it knows who the viewer of the web page is (via LDAP authentication). Is this correct?

At present, the only way a Silva-generated web page on arana could know the identity of the viewer is if it is getting this authentication information from the browser's current session (i.e. the viewer has logged into the DL using their network username and password (via LDAP) and have then opened up a second tab and accessed the web page from there). Is this correct?

If these assumptions are correct, then 'access controlled' document links aren't working.
