<body bgcolor="#E5E5E5">
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt; font-weight: 700">You are currently viewing the
<u>User Control</u> section of LimeSurvey.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">From this point you can view and
edit the security settings and user access rights for your script.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">LimeSurvey security settings
rely on the Apache directory security system. If you are not using the Apache
web surver, you cannot use these security settings and you should initialise
directory security using your servers standard methods.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana"><font style="font-size: 8pt"><u><strong>Initialising Security<br>
</strong></u>The first time you run security from LimeSurvey, it will 'initialise'
the security settings. When it 'initialises', it creates a '.htaccess' file in
your admin directory that restricts access to the admin directory to only those
users in the '.htpasswd' file. The initial username and password are determined by
the 'default' settings in your config.php file. Once you have initialised
security succesfully, your browser will ask for this username and password
before allowing you to continue using the administration scripts of LimeSurvey.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt"><u><strong>Adding Users</strong></u><br>
Once you have initialised security and 'logged in', you will be able to view the
existing users on your system, add new users, delete users or modify users. This
is fairly straight forward. In the list of users that displays, click on the
&quot;edit&quot; button to modify an entry, or the &quot;del&quot; button to delete it. If there is
only one entry in the user table you will not be able to delete that.</font></p>
<p>
<font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: underline">
Turning Off Security<br>
</font><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">To turn off LimeSurveys
security settings, click on the &quot;Turn Off Security&quot; button. This will delete the
htpasswd, htaccess file and all user information from the directories.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt"><u><strong>Limitations of LimeSurvey
Security</strong></u><br>
Until a more flexible security system is implemented, it should be remembered
that the LimeSurvey security settings are an 'all-or-nothing' affair. Users
either have access to ALL administration functions, or they have none.
Eventually a system is planned that allows you to set levels of access. Note
especially that the user security feature is accessible to all users, including
the PLAIN-TEXT PASSWORDS.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt"><u><strong>Troubleshooting</strong></u><br>
If you are having trouble setting up security:</font></p>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" id="AutoNumber1">
<tr>
<td valign="top"><font style="font-size: 8pt" face="Verdana">1.</font></td>
<td><font face="Verdana" style="font-size: 8pt">Make sure you have
read/write permissions in the admin directory. LimeSurvey needs to be able
to create a .htpasswd and .htaccess file here.</font></td>
</tr>
