I am trying to check role for one user.

"iwckrole editor shaun.smith"

I get output as "shaun.smith" is not a userid. I tried with "shaun smith", that does not work either.

Shaun Smith is having access as editor. So why does this command does not work ? I need to check other users.

thanks

Is shaun.smith is the display name or the actual userid? You may need to specify the domain\userid format for the iwckrole CLT.

shaun.smith is an actual userid.

make sure, you add the domain name for that user..
try this
iwckrole domain\user-id role

Hi

iwckrole.exe is the CLT that checks whether the specified user has the specified role.

Usage

iwckrole [-h|-v] role user
Exits with 0 on successful authorization, non-zero on failure.

Example

>iwckrole admin administrator
Returns:
YES

role are author, editor, admin or master.
user is the Username of the person whose role you are checking.

So,in your case it should be iwckrole editor username of shaun.smith

If shaun.smith is the userid for Teamsite login, then the following cmd should give you the correct result. Domain name is not a must.

iwckrole editor shaun.smith

Did you try it for other user IDs.

Thanks.
Using domain name before user id does give result. Question is, I am geting "NO" for every user. e.g. c Smiley Embarassed

iwckrole editor rci\shaun.mckenzie gives output as "NO". Now shaun.makenzie has editor role on teamsite. So what does "NO" mean ? Output has to be zero only for correct user and role, correct ? So if output is "YES" or "NO", does it mean any different ?

thanks

Yes,you are very correct that using domain name before user id does give result,because if you go ADMINISTRATION-->MANGAE USERS you will see that Username are in the form of DOMAINNAME\USERID.But giving a DOMAIN NAME is not mandatory.

Question is, I am geting "NO" for every user. e.g. ciwckrole editor rci\shaun.mckenzie gives output as "NO". Now shaun.makenzie has editor role on teamsite. So what does "NO" mean ?

NO means that shaun.makenzie is not having an editor role.check it again.

Output has to be zero only for correct user and role, correct ? So if output is "YES" or "NO", does it mean any different ?

As far as OUTPUT are concerned iwckrole.exe CLT gives YES or NO as output.
zero [0] on successful authorization and non-zero on failure are the COMMAND EXIT STATUS CODES for the CLT

Hope this will help you out.

What version of TeamSite are you using?
If you're using 671 with FlexRoles - you should probably be using the iwaccess CLT instead of iwckrole since the roles are now specified on a per-branch level not a per-server level.

when do I get zero as an output ?

What is meant by "developer's network"? When should we expect to understand your apparent complete lack of knowledge of anything remotely to do with development?
