Restricting Access
270 Getting Results with Novell Web Services
This section takes you through the process of restricting user access to
documents on your Web site. The sections following this one describe in detail
each option available when using access control. Keep in mind that most
access control rules use only a subset of the available options.
There is also a section of examples on restricting different resources. You can
review these examples in
278.
To create an access-control rule:
1
From the Web Manager home page, click Enterprise Web Server
servername > Server Preferences > Restrict Access.
A form appears on which you select and edit an existing access control
rule or specify a new rule by either choosing the resource you want to
apply to the rule (the file, directory, or wildcard pattern you want to
control) or typing a name to assign to the ACL. There are three sections
to this main form:
Pick a Resource: Allows you to specify a wildcard pattern for files or
directories to restrict access to (such as *.HTML) or to specify a
directory or a filename to restrict.
Pick an Existing ACL: Allows you to select an ACL that you've
created.
Type in the ACL Name: Allows you to create named ACLs. Use this
option only if you're familiar with ACL files and the OBJ.CONF
configuration file. You'll need to manually edit OBJ.CONF if you
want to apply named ACLs to resources.
2
In the section you want to modify, from the Editing field select the part of
your Web site (the resource) that you want to control.
For example, you can select Entire Server to set up access control for your
entire server.
