I can't think of any easy way to do this. There may be some trick involving putting the unrestricted page under the same realm and path as the restricted pages, but I doubt that will work. There is also mod_auth_anon, but I don't think you want to make your public users deal with a prompt. Assuming all these pages are php scripts, one way to handle this would be to set a cookie in the authenticated area and check for that cookie in the public area.
