Oops, there's a bug in ?action=search that doesn't use the
parameter from $HandleAuth.  Sorry about that.  It'll be fixed
in beta38.

If you want it to be done for a specific page (e.g., Group.PageName), 
then create a local/Group.PageName.php file and put the following
in it:

    <?php if (!defined('PmWiki')) exit();
      if ($action != 'pdf') $HandleAuth[$action] = 'admin';

This will change the handling of $action for that particular page.

Or, in local/config.php, you can do

    $pagename = ResolvePageName($pagename);
    if ($pagename == 'Group.PageName' && $action != 'pdf')
      $HandleAuth[$action] = 'admin';
