Help Needed Regarding Authentication

Hi All!

I was wondering if one can use TS to authenticate access of various DCT and generated pages via Windows AD?

For eg - One user is part of group A and second user is part of group B. I would want Group A to see all the DCT that exists and Group B to see only required DCT. At same time, let each group manage their own generated pages for any future changes with in page.

If there is a way possible guide to some sample please. Thank you in advanced.

Hi,

You can control to some extent by providing permissions on the WORKAREA.
You can do so even by changing submit.cfg file according to your requirements.

You can get more of this stuff in the admin guide. Hope this helps.

Are you saying you want certain users (members of group A) to see all fields within a DCT when creating / editing a DCR, but other users (members of group

to only see the required fields in the DCT when creating / editing a DCR?

If so - I suggest you spend some time reading the FormsPublisher Developers Guide and FormAPI Developer's Guide. For the former - look for references to 'allowed'.

No! Ghoti! Actually! I would want let say members of Group A to see All DCT that are part of workarea and members of Group B to see only one DCT with in workarea based on their permission right that would be validated via AD.

Hi There,

Looks like your question is not that clear. If my understanding is right, you have a single branch and 2 groups.

Well, if that is correct, I am afarid you cannot have multiple groups pointing to single branch (TS 5.5.2, TS 6.0/6.1). (Anyone in the forum correct me if I am wrong).

Okay - well I think you still need to look at the 'allowed' and 'cred' elements - but for the templating.cfg file (which is documented in the aforementioned FormsPublisher Developer's Guide)
