You can secure a whole circuit app using NTFS by securing that circuit app's
index.cfm (and the rest of the directory while you're at it).
If you want more granular security - you need the manage the users rights in
a database - based on their NT logon name - (CGI.Auth_User).
We do both.

        Subject:  NTFS security on file

        Hello!

        I'd like to use cflocation to a gate.cfm file that has NTFS security
(in an
        Intranet environment) to secure a portion of my fusebox application.


        Specifically, say there is a usergroup called HR_Users and I want
them to be
        the only ones to be able to enter data.

        I can use cflocation in my <cfcase fuseaction="edit"> to go to a
file called
        gate.cfm.  That file only allows HR_Users to read it.  This file
then sends
        them back to the application (index.cfm) with a new
fuseaction="edit_ok",
        which takes them to the edit form.

        What I'm concerned about is that anyone could just type in
        index.cfm?fuseaction=edit_ok, thus bypassing my security right?

        How can I stop that?

        Thanks!

        Dave
