User management for repository manager

摘要

Authenticating a user is disclosed. An indication that a portal user wants to access a docbase is received. A non-user-specific credential is used to log in to the docbase on behalf of the portal user. Optionally, the docbase is configured to limit the portal user's access to the docbase, during times when the non-user-specific credential has been used to log in to the docbase on behalf of the portal user, to an extent of access that is associated with a user-specific data associated with the portal user.
