I did something similar to this for a client using CFBB (CF Bulletin Board). They wanted to use existing users in CFBB in a members only section in Farcry and they wanted these users to be able to manage their passwords/profiles through CFBB. So, in the custom login page, I use the standard code for checking farcry permissions. If that fails I check CFBB. If the CFBB login works, then I insert the user into farcry so we don't have the problem again. I attached the file for your viewing pleasure.
Hope this helps _____ Jake Churchill Team Leader 11204 Davenport, Ste. 100 Omaha, NE 68154 http://www.cfwebtools.com 402-408-3733 x103 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 3:51 PM To: farcry-dev Subject: [farcry-dev] External Authentication I currently have Farcry 4.0.3 installed using MS SQLServer 2000. Our client has a MSSQL Server database that contains all of their membership data (name, emails, usernames, passwords, etc.) We need to be able to use our client's database to authenticate members accessing info to the website if it is password protected. I saw the article "Authentication Using an Existing MSSQL Application", but this option requires three specific tables to be created in the external database (dmUser, dmGroup, & dmUserToGroup), we need the ability to use the eisting DB structure. I also saw info about setting up an Active Directory, but it was based on Farcry version 3. Any help in this matter is appreciated. Thanks. --Kevin No virus found in this incoming message.
