HModifyServerRights (Function) In french: HModifieDroitServeur
 Available only with this kind of connection
Sets the rights granted to a user or group on an HFSQL server. Remark: it's possible to find out the rights of a group or user on an HFSQL server using the HInfoServerRights function.
Rights is string
Rights = HInfoServerRights("MyConnection", "Smith", hRightsCreateDB)
HModifyServerRights("MyConnection", "Doe", hRightsCreateDB, Rights)
Syntax
<Result> = HModifyServerRights(<Connection> , <User/Group> , <Rights to modify> , <New values>)
<Result>: Boolean - True if the rights have been modified,
- False otherwise. HErrorInfo is used to identify the error. No modification is performed if the new value is already assigned to the specified rights.
Note: An "Unknown user" or "Unknown group" error will be returned by function HErrorInfo if the current user does not have user view rights (constant hRightViewUser) and requests information about another user or group.
<Connection>: Character string or Connection variable Connection for which the rights granted to a user or group of users should be modified. This connection corresponds to: <User/Group>: Character string Name of the user or group whose rights should be modified. <Rights to modify>: Integer constant (or combination of constants) List of rights to modify: | | | hRightsBackup | Rights to perform a backup. | | hRightsChangePassword | Rights to change the password of a user on the server (the user can change his own password and the administrator can change the password of each user). | | hRightsChangeRights | Rights to change rights. | | hRightsCreateDB | Rights to create a database.
Remark: The right to create a database automatically gives the right to connect to this database when it is created. | | hRightsDisconnectClient | Rights to disconnect client computers. | | hRightsManageServer | Rights to use HSetServer. | | hRightsManageTask | Rights to manage the scheduled tasks. | | hRightsManageUser | Rights to delete and add users or groups. | | hRightsPriority | Rights to modify the priority of the current application (HPriority) or the priority of another client application (HPriorityClient). | | hRightsReadLogStat | Rights to see the activity statistics and the server logs. | | hRightsSeeUser | Rights to see the information regarding the users and the groups. | | hRightsSendMessageToClient | Rights to send messages to the client computers. | | hRightsServerReplication | Rights to set up and run a replication between two HFSQL servers. | | hRightsStopServer | Rights to stop a server (HStopServer). |
<New values>: Integer constants List of new values for the modified rights. New values must be assigned to all the rights specified in <Rights to modify> (in the same order).If a single value is indicated in this parameter, it will be assigned to all the rights specified in <Rights to modify>. The possible values are as follows:
| | | hAllowed | The relevant rights are granted to the user or group. | | hForbidden | The relevant rights are not granted to the user or group. | | hInherit | The right is undefined at this level for the user (or the group to which they belong). The HFSQL server uses the rights defined at the higher level. For example, a right defined at group level for a user. |
Remarks When are rights changed? Rights are modified when HModifyServerRights is run. There is no need to restart the server to apply the new rights. What are the rights required to add and/or to modify the users or the groups? The table below presents the rights required to handle the characteristics of groups and users: | | | | hRightsManageUser | hRightsSeeUser |
|---|
| Actions on the other users or groups (other than the current user and group) | | x | | Modify the name of a user or group | x | x | | Add a user or a group | x | x | | Modify the characteristics of the current user or group | x | | | See the users or the groups | | x |
