User create/edit/delete using installed control client as well as web control client

Bhadresh

Hi All,

I want to use security code for user create/edit/delete while using installed control client. I know that web client has limitation for this but can i use same using installed control client and deploy same on web server. i have tested this and working fine using deployment in option (Citect 2016) i am getting compiler screen and then deployment screen.

I have one question on this, while i have created one user from one installed control client and same time modified another from another installed control client. In this case what happen deployment will work or not ?

If it not works then what can i give customer for user management using multiple installed and web control client ?

  • Hi Bhadresh,
    You can use an external database to store your user credentials so it is easy to maintain via any client.
    Be sharp about security!
  • It will not work when connection between both server fail.

    Is there any other solution ?
  • Hi Bhadresh,
    I think you should make use of Windows Authentication instead of the Citect User Account, since these accounts aren't centrally managed, and like you have explained, you hit limitations around editing user accounts online and getting it to propogate to the rest of the system, let alone Deployment Clients or Web Clients which add more complexity. With the use of Windows Authentication, you can map any Windows Group (and user) to a Role in Citect SCACA. When you change the password of this user, it is changed centrally on the Windows Domain Controller.
    Let me know how you go.
    Kind regards
    Olivier
