Password Protecting a Published Project

Hello,
We are using RH7 WebHelp. My department works on RH projects for a number of different departments within our company. One department (HR) has asked if we can restrict access to their materials from the rest of the company once we have published them. Their material will obviously have its own URL, but they are concerned that others may learn that address and gain access to their materials. Is there a way to password protect their project or otherwise restrict access to it? Thanks in advance.

Hi TW

You need to speak to your web development team. WebHelp output is like any other site. Just a collection of HTML pages. So they should be able to configure the Web space so only authorized individuals could have access.

Cheers... Rick

Thanks Rick. I checked with the security folks in our IT department and they are able to restrict access to individual projects by assigning security to the directory where the published projects reside. I appreciate you steering me in the right direction.
