I read in another topic in this category about someone using NT Groups to control access to Forums.
I currently have 3 forums that I would like to restrict access to the corresponding NT Groups of Production, Control and Support.
I've hunted around in the Admin pages but can't see if this is an easily configured option, so any guidance on where to start looking would be cool.
Regards
Paul. |

You need to be running NT authentication, and then if you go into the properties for each forum, set the Auth Type to either NT Global Group or NT Global Group (Hidden). In the Password or Global Groups box, type the name of the NT group which can see/post to the forum and that's it (if there's more than 1 group allowed to a forum, separate the group names with commas, and no spaces).
Note that the NT groups must be Global and not Local groups, and do not include any domain name if you are running multiple NT domains.
Hope that helps,
John |

Ok, when I go into the properties for a particular forum, I don't see any option to set NT groups etc..
Under the main forum config, I have NT set, and under NT Feature configuration, I have both groups and autlogon configured.
