Hello,
I am working on a document management system for a client. I am planning to
set up the system so that documents are protected, sort of.. A user has an
access level and based on that access level, a list of available documents
will display as an HTML page and the user can click a hyperlink to download
or view the selected document.
I am planning to handle this all through a SQL database and ASP..
What I would REALLY like to do, though, is protect a set of directories so
that a user could not just enter a URL and download a document without being
prompted for a username and password if he/she hasn't already logged in.
I have done something like this using AuthnetiX from Flicks Software, but
this current client is trying to create a solution "on the cheap", and so
I'd like to see if I can build the solution using the secuirty mechanisms
built into the O/S.
What I'm thinking is that I'll set up the directories and assign a group
access to each directory.. My question then is, can I add users to the
"Local Users and Groups" for Windows 2000 via ASP?
Thanks,
Rich 4 1947

Thanks for that link.. There are a lot of articles listed though. Can
you tell me which once I want to be looking at?
Also, it seems the titles on most of those articles refer to DOT NET stuff, but I'm just doing plain ASP as far as I know..
Thanks again,
Rich

Hi Rich,
I had the same problem. I write the following script to add users to
a local group.
Sincerly,
Joerg
******
dim server, group,user
group= "localGroupName"
server= "pcName"
user = "domainuser"
Set obj = GetObject("WinNT://" & server & ",computer")
set oGroup = obj.GetObject("group", group)
oGroup.ADD "WinNT:" & "//Domain" & "/" & user
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Response.Write "could not add user to group<br>"
Response.End
End if
oGroup.SetInfo
set oGroup = nothing
set obj = nothing
this is a decent application as far as that goes www.aspprotect.com
