Shurbann Martes	Friday 02 January 2004 6:57:48 am Hello eZ, Right now I'm using eZ to manage the content of my intranet. But I dont want it to control/manage myusers, therefor I want to use another DB. I was reading throug the manual and bump into this: "How to make your own handler" Am I looking at the right place? And what does the manual means with ".....defines setting for your handler ( user placement, attribute match between Exponential and external server, etc.)...." I mean how can I define a setting (for example the DB name) in the .ini file and using this also in the Handler? Regards, -Shurbann
Marco Zinn	Friday 02 January 2004 9:48:59 am I think, you are at the right place. I think, you should look at the text-handler (test it first) and probably use this as a base for your own handler. As you see in http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/configuration/configuration/login_handler/using_text_file , the text handler also reads values from the .ini files. Of course, for accessing your own Databases (with your user data), you must write your own code. Marco http://www.hyperroad-design.com

Hello eZ,

Right now I'm using eZ to manage the content of my intranet. But I dont want it to control/manage myusers, therefor I want to use another DB.

I was reading throug the manual and bump into this: "How to make your own handler"

Am I looking at the right place?

And what does the manual means with ".....defines setting for your handler ( user placement, attribute match between Exponential and external server, etc.)...."

I mean how can I define a setting (for example the DB name) in the .ini file and using this also in the Handler?

Regards,
