Home Area Security Issues |
|
|
Hi,
How do I manage security in the home area of my SPS portal ? On all
sub-areas etc. I can use the "Manage Security" link in the actions
menu, however this menu item doesn't exist on the home page.
My problem revolves around the issues as follows. Say I want to setup
multiple site groups groupA, groupB, and groupC all of which have
rights to add links to lists, upload documents etc.
I can assign groupA to sub-areaA using Manage Security link in
sub-areaA and restrict the other 2 groups (B and C) from adding links
etc. using this method. I can do the same for groupB in sub-areaB and
groupC in sub-areaC etc.
However ALL THREE groups have permissions to add links, upload docs etc
to the home area - I can't find a way to restrict them since there is
no "Manage Security" link in the actions menu.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Many thanks,
Chris |

Hi Ted,
No, I've not setup annonymous access, I don't want to do this as I want
certain groups to have certain permissions on the home, and other,
areas.
Can anyone explain how you setup which site groups are allowed access
on the home area ? On sub-areas it's easy with the "Manage Security"
link, but this is not present on the home page.
Many thanks,
Chris. |

Home Area Security |
|

Going to the "Manage Users" page allows you to edit the users and change the group they belong to; however, there does not appear to be a way to change the home area security.
Just as in the above example you have a home area and three sub areas. Each sub-area has a group specific to that area. So user1 is only a member of group1 which only has access to sub-area1. So I edit sub-area1 and only allow group1 read, edit, and upload access to subarea1. I do this for all three sub-areas. When I logon as a user from group1 I can upload content to the home area.
Is there a way to remove this privilege? by editing the user, I take away thier privileges on the sub-area. |
