[kepler-dev] RC1 installers

[ben leinfelder]

Chad -
One more thing while we're on the topic of configuration.xml. I think  
the Authenticated Metacat source should be unchecked by default. It  
gives the first time user the feeling that all data is private/ 
protected because they are immediately prompted for credentials when  
they try the data search. Users that have access to private data will  
typically know that they need to access it using their credentials,  
and if not, they'll quickly realize it when their data does not show  
up in the default search results.
