How can I allow anyone in the NAB to access the db?

I have a Notes based browser app that I want all users in the NAB (i.e. they have a person doc) to be able to access as an Editor.

I have to have a login screen otherwise, users not in the NAB can access the app which I don’t want, also when documents are created I won’t be able to capture the username.

I wrote a nightly scheduled agent which clears out all the members of the “AllNABUsers” group and then does a dbcolumn (on a view which displays all usernames) to re-populate the current list of users but the result is:

“ERROR: The specified database lookup generated more than 65,534 results, which is too large for Notes to handle.”

If I set the Anonynous or Default in the ACL to Editor, the users aren’t presented with a login page,

How can I force a browser login to the app but accept any username as long as they’re in the NAB?

I know beggars can’t be choosers but I’d prefer the fastest, easiest solution since I’m not a hard-core coder that likes to challenge his coding skills :-o

I appreciate any suggestions,

Set Anonymous to ‘No Access’ and ‘Default’ to Editor. This will force everyone to login as anonymous access is not allowed, and then give anyone who is not specifically mentioned in the ACL Editor access.

I think that this can be done by adding to the ACL - */(domain) and replacing domain with your domain to the database. I would try this and see if it might work.

thanks but what is (domain) exactly?

would that be the “O=” part of the username? we don’t have that here, how else would I find the domain of the database?
