Author How to Enable Guest Access in a Multi-Site Scenario
Chan

2004-11-22, 8:46 pm

Hi

I am managing a multiple site CMS enviornment which has a front end read
only web (CMS02) sites configured to be served from a shared db. Authoring
is done on CMS02 and when postings are approved them become available on
CMS01.
The authoring server (CMS01) is read/write.

The sites have separate author logins for each site. www.site1.com
www.site2.com

Authors can only see the sites/resources/templates they have rights to.

However to enable subscriber or guest access to the sites from the front end
web site I have applied this workaround which was suggested in this article.

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=810308

This works fine apart from now that all authors can see each others sites
and template galleries/resources when in edit mode.
Is this expected behaviour?
Thanks

Chan

Hi Chan,

yes that is expected behaviour.
Authors will see all items they have access to.
So all items they are assigned to or the guest account is assigned to as
guest account means: everyone has access.

Cheers,
Stefan.
