  • How to deny users to edit groups?

    Hi there,

    I have the followng issure:
    since User-resrictions in my OX installation are based on groups, i dont want them to edit their groups of course.

    I've done the following:
    Code:
    /opt/open-xchange/sbin/changeuser -c 1 -A oxadmin -P ????? -u username --access-edit-group off
    then:
    Code:
    User XX in context 1 changed
    But: The changed user is sill able to the groups!

    Any solution?

    Thx, Helge

    Hi,

    did you do a real logout/login with that user after changing the preferences? On the server side the group edit access is blocked for the user but the GUI still shows the plugin until the configuration has been reloaded, which happens at the login.

    Greetings

      Yes, I did this. And indeed, I see the GUI interface. And I can edit and add groups - the gui does so, though. How do I see any difference to the non - deactivated edit-group-access?

      thx

        Hi

        my read is, that the access combination name for this context is set so all. If it is so all Users have all Rights in in this Context.
        Set the Access Combination Name for this context to premium, and give some user who needs it the right to edit groups.

          I can remember form the install process to have done something about the Set the Access Combination Name. Could be a solution. But I need a hint how do do it, since there is no documentation how to use this option

          In the meantime however I fixed it myself: changed the CONTEXT with access-edid-goups off and swiching an admin - user back on

          Thx

            Hi,

            for all other users:

            changecontext -A adminuser -P adminpass -c contextid --access-combination-name premium

            The access-combination-names can be found in /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/ModuleAccessDefinitions.properties
            there you can also edit the access-combination-names, but you have to apply the new access-combination to the context.
