Restricted access to remote repositories
----------------------------------------
Key: MRM-579
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-579
Project: Archiva
Issue Type: Wish
Components: remote proxy, Users/Security
Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-3
Reporter: Arne Degenring
Originally discussed on
http://www.nabble.com/Rights-management-for-Proxy-Connectors-tf4752902s177.html#a13590815
It should be possible to configure Archiva in a way, that access to repo1
through a proxy connector is available only for a few super users (= repository
managers).
In my scenario, normal users should only be able to access the artifacts
available in the internal repository. In case they need a new artifact from
repo1, they ask the repository manager to add it. The repository manager checks
whether the artifact complies to e.g. company licensing rules, whether the
metadata on repo1 is ok (which is mostly but not always the case), and so on.
If everything is ok, he downloads the artifact including all dependencies.
Afterwards the artifact should be available to everybody inside the company.
Wendy Smoak and Brett Porter noticed that a permission on the remote repository
probably would make most sense.
