Hi All,
We have a request from a client to make smartforms available extranally and I am well aware of the internetexternal connector license. We have suggested to the client this option and they are happy to purchase the license but this is under some scrutiny as security is going to be an issue.
What I would like to get is some documentation on, and advice from the community about how the security is going to function and what options are available.
- The customer obviously doesn't want to create an AD account for every user that will be using the smartforms so windows STS authentication is out the window. Would we be using Forms STS authentication that could perhaps connect to another DB instance to store user login information?
- If the above is not an option how would authentication be done to make the pages secure so that only users that have "registered" will be able to sign in (Anonymous authentication is an absolute no go) Would single sign-on be a viable method ?
As you can tell I have almost no knowledge of how this is actually supposed to work so ANY input would be greatly appreciated !
Kind regards,
Helgard Wagener
