How Are User Sessions Maintained using Frontpage Extensions
|
|
|
| hello all,
i am newbie to Frontpage/Frontpage Extensions. i was able to configure
subwebs and specific users for each of those subweb.
In my understanding these user accounts are used when a user connects to
Server for publishing his content on to the server using MS Frontpage. so the
FP SE must maintain user sessions for publishing.This works fine if i have a
single server.
now to my question, What if i have a cluster of server, which are not using
NLB but some other load balancer for clustering. is there a way to maintain
user sessions across the cluster using a DB or any inbuilt FP setting ?
Please ,first of all let me know, is my understanding of the user accounts
correct and if yes how to achieve user session maintainance
thanks in advance

| You may get a better response to this in the IIS group. FP itself doesn't
keep the permissions, it just makes requests for the OS and IIS to handle
that. When a user is required to login to a site, it's actually IIS that is
checking the NTFS permissions and determining the ability for a user to
authenticate. The FP Server Extensions never enter into the equation except
as an easier way to add/remove users for a particular web without messing
with Windows Explorer.
Hope this helps,
