Custom Authentication without using Active Directory
|
|
| Microsoft 2005-09-23, 7:49 am |
| I need to integrateCMS with an ASP.NET system which holds user details in a
database. So, my first problem is that I really do not want to then
replicate this in some directory service and have to keep it synchronised.
This would be a real headache with a user base of > 50,000. I will also have
a lot of user data and preferences stored in my database.
So, is there any way of implementing real custom authentication in that you
can specify your own storage and authentication?

| Hi,
for authentication this is possible - but not for authorization.
Authorization can only be done against an NT/AD account.
So if you are looking on for custom authentication, please check the "custom
authentication" section in the MCMS documentation.
Cheers,
Stefan
