[Mediawiki-l] error with createaccount=false

[Steven Settlemyre]

I am trying to lock down my wiki site, but when I set 
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false; I can't even get to 
the login page. It says I must login to access that page (catch-22). I 
am using MediaWiki version 1.7.1.

Thanks
Steve
