Anonymous access to dashboards

Is it possible to give anonymous access to users to a single dashboard?

I found this post on the subject, however, the link within does not work.

That link would be http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.1/Developer/ThirdParty#Create_an_iframe_in_your_site - removed in 4.2's docs.
I'd approach this using SSO with a special user, plus restricting the URLs to only your app - no manager shenanigans.

Ok so to do this you must also set enable_insecure_login = True within the web.conf file in the system/local directory and it works. Thanks for your help!
