Description

If the shiro.ini configuration file is modified to protect some urls by a user / password / role while the home screen still allows for anonymous access, Zeppelin does not show a login button or login option under the username menu.

In this case the only way to login is to access some url which does not allow anonymous access (e.g. the interpreter menu), which will then prompt for login.

To reproduce the issue use the following setup in shiro.ini

[urls]
/api/version = anon
/#/notebook/** = anon
/api/interpreter/** = authc, roles[admin]
/api/configurations/** = authc, roles[admin]
/api/credential/** = authc, roles[admin]
#/** = anon
