  • 1.  acl examples

    Posted Mon June 21, 2004 12:47 PM

    Hello,

    I would like to restrict access to some documents in TWS using ACLs. I’m using TWS 4.1 with Tamino security enabled.

    The users are listed in /administration/security/users/my_domain/users

    and Tamino groups are in /administration/security/users/my_domain/groups

    So everything seems right at this stage.

    I have few questions before to go further :

    First the users are displayed with the format DOMAIN\USERNAME as defined in ino:security. Is there any trouble adressing the URI principals with backslashes ?

    The group names contains some slashes and I wonder if this can be a problem with their URI too.

    examples : user INO\ADMIN and group INFO/ADMIN/WEBDAV

    Anyway I would like to manage access of webdav directories and all their content at the same time. Is there a way to set an ACL for a full directory hierarchy, not just a file ressource ? This is required because we manage HTML Word documents that can links images and metadata in subdirectories.

    I hope you understand my questions. Any help is welcome because I don’t have a lot of time to spend in learning webdav acl theory.

    best regards,
    Jerome

    I found the reponse for most of my previous questions. I just need to link ACLs with user groups now.

    I can set ACLs on a Tamino userid like /administration/security/users/INO/ADMIN but didn’t find a way to select groups or roles.

    I’m using Tamino athentication with a domain called “INO”. I put the user INO\ADMIN in the Tamino group ADMIN-GRP

    URL /administration/security/users/ADMIN-GRP doesn’t seem to work.

    I really need some help.

    regards,
    Jerome
