RB Server 7.03

edited August 2003 in Server
Have the security features of RB Server been updated? Can I control access
to the RB server by Username, Password and/or incoming IP?

Can I use SSL?

TIA

    You can accomplish both of these with RB 7.02 or later....


    1. Starting with RB 7.02 you can implement username/password security. See
    the custom parameters demos in the followign directories.

    RBServer\Demos\Servers\Custom Parameters
    RBServer\Demos\Clients\Custom Parameters
    RBServer\Demos\WebTier\Custom Parameters

    The example work together. Each contains a ReadMe.doc and commented code.

    2. For SSL see the article below.

    Tech Tip: Configuring the WebTier to use HTTPS
    ---------------------------------------------------

    Configuring the WebTier to use HTTPS can be accomplished using one of the
    options listed below. The property editor by default does not allow https to
    be specified. (This needs to be corrected in a future release.)

    Options:

    1. configure the WebTier.IniSettings to load the https params from an .ini
    file

    OR

    2. Use the web module OnCreate event to code something like this:

    rsWebTier1.HTTPPrefix := 'https://';

    rsWebTier1.WebCachePath := 'https://localhost/rbWebPub/Cache/';
    rsWebTier1.WebModuleURI :=
    'https://localhost:8081/rbWebDebug.CoRBWebDebug';
