Keeping the pages in the offline project is not the best solution. 
Instead, you should

    * create a user group of users that are not allowed to log in into
      the workplace
    * change the permissions of your files so that they are only
      readable by users from this user group and by workplace users
    * all users that have access to your restricted sections should be
      users in that user group


When opencms hits a resource for which the user does not have read 
permission and if the user is not logged in, opencms will automatically 
ask for authentication. By default, http-authentication will be used but 
opencms-wiki.org also has some information about how to configure a 
form-based login instead.

Take a look at opencmswiki.org - you might find something there
