Re: Bug in admin tool (fwd) - smallwiki

12 Jan 2004

hi,

I'll have a look at the safari problem next week, 'cause I won't be @iam
this week :-(
role/user strategy:
it is correct what you are saying:
the main admin is 'admin':
- he creates the anonymous role and the anonymous user
- he creates an admin role and corresponding admin user for each wiki
  (these little admin users should also have the role anonymous in order
  to view other wikis)- and now those little admins are responsible for creating roles and
users
in their wiki. they can create new admins for a specific range in their
wiki and so on...- it is important to apply this strategy properly (see next point)

deletion of an admin user (a user that owns permission *Admin):
- an admin user can only delete users that he has created himself.
  (except the main admin: he can delete any user he wants to)
- by deleting an admin user, we will also delete the users and roles that
he has created himself, and so on...

cheers,
david.

  Hi

 I tried with Internet Explorer and it worked. And crash with
 safari.....Strange

 By the way should I create the EFBUser using the EFBAdminUser.
 This is my impression that this better than what I'm doing every wiki
 Admin should create his wiki roles and user
 and we should not create roeland user that are specific to a wiki with
 the root admin.

 Can you comment on that?
