ArServerUserInfo Class Reference

List of all members.

Detailed Description

This class holds information about users and loads it from a file.

For a description of the algorithm used to match passwords and keys and all look at the documentation for ArServerBase.

The file format for this class is set up to be easy to make a new version of and yet read all the old versions.

For all of the versions everything after ; or # is ignored. The version information is then the first line of non comments.

The first version is described as such: The version string is 'UserInfoVersion1'. Then there are lines that follow for each user which are 'user userName password groups'. The passwords are plain text in the file, though they aren't sent that way over the network (look at ArServerBase docs for details). To display the groups available use ArServerBase::logCommandGroups().

There is an example user info file in ArNetworking/examples/serverDemo.userInfo
