Applications, groups, and users

Applications, groups, and users

Use the FlashConnect Maintenance Web pages to set up, delete and maintain FlashConnect users and groups, and FlashConnect application privileges.

After users and groups are set up, assign them access to dynamic applications in the w3Apps file.

Note:

This topic describes performing various administrative tasks from the FlashConnect File Maintenance Web page. These menus and maintenance screens are also accessible from the www account. For example:

  1. Log to the www account from the D3 or mvBase database (if it is not the current account).

  2. Type M to display the FlashConnect Support & Maintenance menu (if the menu is not currently displayed).

  3. Select the Maintain FlashConnect Files option to display the FlashConnect File Maintenance Menu.

  1. Logging on to FlashConnect Maintenance pages
    Access the FlashConnect Maintenance Web pages via your browser using the host name or URL address assigned to your Web server.
  2. Adding FlashConnect groups
    Use the FlashConnect Group Maintenance Web page to add, edit or delete groups that are allowed to access dynamic applications.
  3. Deleting FlashConnect groups
    Deleting groups permanently removes the group and its members from accessing any applications.
  4. Adding users to groups
    Every user name in the w3Users file is in either the Members or Non-Members list box. However, you can manually add or delete users from the FlashConnect, User Maintenance Web page or by editing the w3Users file.
  5. Removing and adding users from membership lists
    You can add or remove a user from any group (without deleting the user) at any time by moving the user to and from the Member and Non-Member lists.
  6. Deleting FlashConnect users
    Users may be deleted from any group at any time. Removing users from the Member list, deletes them from the group.
  7. Assigning users and groups to dynamic applications
    You can assign users and groups to dynamic applications through the w3Apps file or from the FlashConnect Applications Selection Web page.
  8. Deleting applications
    Applications may be deleted from the w3Apps file so that they are no longer available from the Application list.
