I implementing an Internet + Intranet site with 3 types of access:
** Internet (public users)
Public access to the rootfolder ("not logged in"). Public part of WebDB site is accessible for Internet usage.
** Intranet (INTERN user)
I have setup a DAD with username+pwd for common Intranet users.
User INTERN is a special user with "Intranet Common Privs" (and so doesn't require users to login themselves as they are already logged in when using this DAD in the URL.
** Intranet (private users)
Here Intranet users first logout then login using they own name + pwd.
This gives them access to a private folder.
I need to make sure that ALL access from outside the company always happen with WebDB PUBLIC access. Outside users should somehow be presented with the public rootfolder with "not-logged-in" status.
I've been told something like this could be done checking on the IP-address (testing for a valid Intranet IP-subnet). And then simply redirecting people from outside to the default rootfolder.
Preferrably I'd like to have _only_ the default DAD (otherwise anyone guessing the correct DAD for user INTERN would have Intranet access!!!
And then - if the user is NOT logged in AND sits on the Intranet segment he should be automatically logged in as user INTERN+pwd.
All of this should happen without the users knowledge of course :)
Any help, suggestions etc. would be greatly appreciated. I believe this would be a rather common situation so hopefully some of you have a solution (or part of it).
All tips welcome!
