Hi,
I want to prevent the user for replicating the database as its causing duplication of the documents but they should be allowed to copy and print the documents.
If I uncheck the privilege “Replicate or copy documents” in the ACL it does not allow even copying and printing of the documents.
Can any body help on this,
Thanks in advance,
Kamalesh

Subject: prevent replication from server to local replicas…
we have 100+ users using the database(server copy) with local replicas so we need to prevent it from the server side.
Could you tell me how can we prevent replication from the server side and also it should allow copy and print the document
Thanks,

Hang on here. Disabling replication is not the solution to your duplicate document problem (which I assume are replication or save conflicts). Even if users can’t create local replicas, at some point you may want to have multiple server replicas, if only for HA.
I suggest you find out why there are so many conflicts, and address that in the application design. For instance, you might turn on document locking, or look for places where users are modifying the documents unnecessarily. For instance, if you’re logging when a user reads a document by modifying the document to record who just opened it, that’s not a good way to do that.
