How do you turn on the anonymous blog posting in SharePoint?
Can someone help me with a SharePoint 3.0 question. I have a outbox SharePoint Blog site. I want to allow anonymous visitors to the Blog to create posts without a user account login. Then I would like to require content approval so the posts and comments will not appear in public views until approved.
 
Thanks for the help,
Mod

Thank you! works perfect!
 
What about the second questions.
 
How do I require the content they post to be content approved before it shows in the public view?
