redirect - TYPO3: 404 for restricted access page instead of login form

Question

I have a link pointing to restricted page. When I access the link directly in logout status, its redirect to 404. Actually it should redirect to login form.

I tried:

config {
   typolinkLinkAccessRestrictedPages=PAGE_ID 
   typolinkLinkAccessRestrictedPages_addParams = &return_url=###RETURN_URL###&pageId=###PAGE_ID###
   }

Not working.

Also I tried the login status redirect plugin, no use.

Anyone know how to do this? I am using TYPO3 version 4.4.8.

As this is still unanswered, does this help? Valid for TYPO3 < 8.x

# Check if user is logged in:
[usergroup = *]
# do something
[else]
page.config >
page.config.additionalHeaders = Location: http://www.yourdomain.org/login.html
[end]

I recently posted this to another questions and it crossed my mind that it might be a suitable workaround for your probem.
