Section access issue

Hi all,

I'm trying to achieve (if it is possible) a section access in which i identify user only by their Domaine name .

For exemple juste users belonging to Domaine1 are allowed to open\acces my application .Is it possible ?

The aim behind all this , is to allow two users from another domain to access the application (NTFS access on server  ) and while openning the application ,the data will be restricted for them .

Any suggestions?

Thx

Hi

I didn't get your idea .

My purpose is to manage security on two level :

on application  acces on server  : this is managed by the server by according licence to users .Liste of users is defined (or groups) by using NTFS authoriszation .

Second one is data restriction : i have to make possibe access to the application for new users coming new domain .But i have also to restrict data access to these users .

My idea was to open access by using ntfs authoriszation  as usual and for data restriction by using section access .In this section i will use users groupe or domain rather than useranmes .

Any suggestion or sample application ?

Thx a lot

Well I cannot improve on my previous answer. Except by explaining what you cannot do:

you cannot specify just a domainname in Section Access, because the field needs a domainname\username or domainname\groupname value. I already explained that every AD domain defines a default group called Domain Users, and all newly created users are automatically made member of this domain.

So if you use Domain1\Domain Users as an NTNAME value, and Domain2\Domain Users as a second value, Section Access will grant access to all users of Domain1 and Domain2.
