1711.0. "GC, CM & Moderator Can Only Delete Note Only??? " by ZPOVC::CHIKLIAK () Wed Nov 04 1992 10:56

Hi,

Need some input whether these can be done. Customer wants to find out whether
they can customize the Group Conference so that ONLY the MODERATOR can delete
the note, and not even the user that enter the note initially.

If yes, the customer does not know which file to customize. Can someone point 
it to me. Also is this supported???

If no, can anything be done beside customization.

Thanks in advance...

1711.2	In VAX Notes - no, in GPC - with caution	IDNTCR::RHOTON	John Rhoton @TNO - DTN 871.7947	`Wed Nov 04 1992 11:16`	22

It depends on which point you would like to enforce this restriction. The base product VAX Notes does not allow for this type of facility, nor is there any way to implement it short of convincing the (VAX Notes) developers that it would be desirable. This implies that anything you would do for GPC would only be valid for GPC users. If the users were to manage to use another client (PATHworks, Motif, Command-line...) then they could easily circumvent the restriction. If you are interested in applying the customisation for only ALL-IN-1 users then you could easily edit the named data for the Delete option. Still you would want to ensure that none of your users could get to DCL and invoke the command-line interface. I hope this helps, John
1711.3	Customize the replies too	IOSG::TALLETT	Gimmee an Alpha colour notebook...	`Wed Nov 04 1992 18:00`	9
	You could maybe customize the way you add REPLY's so that they are not owned by the entering user. Say by submitting a batch job to write the reply, or an SDF. Then they could only delete entries they enter with other interfaces (but you could restrict the conference so they had to use your GPC) Regards, Paul
