Assigning Groups to Repositories

Post by Tom » Wed Apr 27, 2005 12:19 pm

Step 1 : Using the Admin tool, I can assign users to a group. So I create a group called consultants and I assign 5 users to it. no problem.

Step 2: Now I have a repository that I wish to limit access to the group I created in the above step.

But I can't seem to figure out how or where this is done! Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Tom

Individual users can be denied access to an entire repository, so that they don't even see the the repository in the repository list after logging in. This can be set in the Properties dialog for the Repository Pane, and in the Security dialog from the User Pane.

There's no option like this for Groups.

You can do something similar by taking away users' default rights and assigning them to the group, and then in the Groups tab select the group and then Security Rights->Add Assignment and uncheck the Read, Checkout, Add rights boxes.

The members of the group will still see the Repository name in the list of Repositories, but will be denied any access.
