Is there any way to restrict access to a section of a site (and all objects under it) to a particular domain, or to make a section/sub-objects available to only a particular domain?
Yup, users can have a 'domains' list. If you define a user specifically for the domain you want to limit access to, with no password but with the Domains field filled in, all users from that domain are authenticated as that user.
The Domains property is of type 'tokens', so you can fill in a list of domains, and use wildcards as well. Domains of type 10.1.*.* work fine, as do *.antraciet.nl types.
Cheers Martijn, That's really cool, it works well. Problem is I'd like to deny access to people who aren't in that domain (preferably with a dtml doc that tells them why). Is there a way of doing this? tia tone ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2
