Hi All!

The killer criterion for SharePoint Portal in my current project is:
Creating websites based on site-definitions (CAML) that already have
predefined permissions / security settings!

My main aim is to develop a website-template or a site-definition which
contains different document-libraries that are only readable for different
corresponding active-directory-groups - and not for any other users.
Unfortunately website-templates only represent the structure of a website
and do not contain the permissions / security settings. And with
site-definitions (CAML) I haven't either yet found a solution for this :-(

!!!The problem is: after each creation of a new website you manually need to
set and adjust all permissions / security settings for each document
library. --> Can you give me a hint how to solve this problem with
site-definitions (CAML)?

I'd be really pleased if you could give me a hint if this would be possible
with CAML or not!
Can you give me a hint if it would be possible at all to solve this problem?
I'll appreciate hints of any kind!

Thank you very much in advance and best regards from Germany, Jan Roesner

I have yet to see a template or definition carry over or define permissions,
I would be interested to see if anyone knows how to do this, as we face the
same issue.

Now, if it is something you want to add or subtract across all site groups,
you can do that on the "Manage User Rights for Virtual Server" page in portal
central admin. If you are removing a permission, doing it this way will even
remove the permission from the Administrator site group.

Hi,

only an idea from me: When developing you site
definition you can run any .NET code by using
the ExecutURL-Element (see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/spptsdk/html/tscamlexecuteurl_SV01113237.asp)
for more details to this element.

With you .NET code you can use the Sharepoint-API
and so you are abel to do all security settings
via the .NET code and the Sharepoint-API.

Maybe someone can think about this idea and tell
me/us if doing it this way will work.

Bye,

Olaf

Please see my answer in .portalserver

In the future please don't post two identical messages in two ngs. Cross
posting is okay so the answer will get put into both but having them
separate just makes things confusing.

hi all,

thanks for your suggestions!

Instead of programming .NET-code I will now use the stsadm backup and
restore process to fully restore a site collection and all security
settings.
I will "stsadm -o backup" my template site, then restore it (stsadm -o
restore...) to the new site location.

Cheers, jr

We have developed a C# application that copy's any site or subsite and puts
it to any new site you create and keeps all permissions on the site, document
library, list, etc..
