Hey Gang,
I searched around the list archives for a while, so sorry if this has
already come up and I missed it.
I'd like to find out if Acegi can be configured to help me with my problem,
or if I should rethink my approach.
What'd I'd like to do is to have 2 separate authentication areas under one
context(webapp).
For example, I want to have 2 separate protected areas that use different
database tables for credentials:
/webapp/backend/* - This is the "back end" part of the app that our
employees will use to manage customers and other parts of the system. I'd
like to use the tables "employee" and "employee_role" for authentication and
rights to protect all the content behind /webapp/backend/*
/webapp/customer/myarea/* - customers will have a "My Area" part of the
website that requires authentication to access and hold various information
and data important to them. Our employees will publish data to this area
also for our customers to view/use. I'd like to use the tables "customer"
and "customer_role" for authentication and rights to protect all the content
behind /webapp/customers/myarea/*
So. Does anyone know if I can configure Acegi to handle this kind of
situation, or should I just run two separate contexts, one /webapp-backend/
and one /webapp-customer/ for example?
Or should I have a shared table or something.. "basic_user" that holds
credentials for both employees and customers and then associate the user
either with an employee or a customer and just have one set of roles?
Any info/thoughts is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
-John
