Ok so heres the issue. We developed a massive web-based tool for a customer of ours and it originally was developed with built in authentication(unsecure) they asked us to implement server authentication which we did through creating local user accounts which we tied to a local user group which had access to specific items including the database. <br />
<br />
We sent them incremental versions and had no response. Finally today we sent them the final product and they come back saying they use Active Directory on thier servers...problem is, I have no idea how Active Directory works and we also dont have a machine setup with Active Directory for test. <br />
<br />
Does Active Directory still work the same way with users and groups? Basically all that has to be done is a group has to be created that is then given permissions to the folder hosting the application. It also is added to the MSSQL users list to give the group access to the database.<br />
<br />
Application<br />
Windows Server 2003<br />
MSSQL<br />
ASP/VbScript<br />
