7.7.3HTTP AUTHENTICATION
Only NTLM authentication is supported. If no authentication is required, the «NTLM» value (see table above) must be set to 0 and all «A» registry entries also set to 0. If authentication is used, the registry entry «NTLM» must be set to 1. The «A» registry entries of the corresponding virtual directories must also be set to 1 (see chapter Virtual Directory Settings).
Note:
Only the local User Administration can be used (see chapter 7.9)! The connection to a domain controller is not supported.
Access authentication A
The registry entry A for each virtual directory describes the type of access authentication permitted. The following steps are required to access a web page when A>0. The valid values for A are described in the chapter Virtual Directory Settings.
1.The user must be authenticated for the corresponding virtual directory. Access is refused if this is not successful.
2.The user is assigned administrator permissions if the user name is contained in the registry entry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\HTTPD\AdminUsers].
3.If A=1 or A=2 and the user is contained in the registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\HTTPD\VROOTS\/«directory»\UserList] access to the web page permitted.
Note:
All users are granted administration rights if A=2 and the registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\HTTPD\AdminUsers] is empty. It must therefore be ensured that the registry entry AdminUsers is not empty!
4.If one of the above steps fails, access to the web page is not granted.
User List (UserList)
When listing the users for the virtual directories concerned (see Virtual Directory Settings) the following syntax must be observed:
Example | Description |
The users «GladysL» and «AnnD» have access permissions | |
| The user «KimYos» does not have access (identified with a leading |
| minus character) |
"*" | All users have access permissions |
Note:
Administrators always have access to a virtual directory if A=1. This applies even if the user is not contained in the UserList registry entry.
