Assigning users access to Remote Web Workplace

Updated: January 22, 2009

Applies To: Windows SBS 2008

To access your Remote Web Workplace, a user must be a member of the Web Workplace Users security group. By default, all users are members of this group. However, you might want to restrict access to certain individuals or security groups.

For example, you might want to prevent temporary workers or employees in certain job classifications or departments from accessing business information while they are away from the office. Or, if you created custom user roles or security groups, you may want to give those users permission to access Remote Web Workplace.

You can add or remove access rights for individual users or groups by using the Manage permissions task on the Web Sites page of the Windows SBS Console. Additionally, you can configure detailed permissions that define which users can access the Remote Web Workplace Links list when they sign in.
