Hi,

In free PBX, I have created a user and just given him access to 'conferences' and 'ivr'. It works fine if I log in to the 'PBX Settings' drop down on PBX menu on the trixbox portal. i.e.: http://
/maint/index.php?freepbx.

However, this way the user could also access many of the other 'administrative' functions from the portal e.g. 'Config file editor'

Is it possible to give access to just the PBX features the administrator allows (e.g. ivr and conferences, in this case) and nothing else?

I tried http://
/freepbx. but that doesn't work

basically, for the user I create using PBX->PBX Settings->Administrators->Add user, I would like to lock down access to features only permitted in 'Admin access' rules

Thanks,
--

Does anybody know how to

Does anybody know how to limit access to certain functions only on the trixbox interface/portal for a non-administrative user?

did you check out the admin

did you check out the admin section on the PBX > PBX Settings > Setup > Basic > Administrators ?

You need to setup mysql

You need to setup mysql authentication. Then you can add users and assign privileges from the Administrators tab.

I have done exactly that!

I have done exactly that! The MySQL authentication is working. I created a user called 'conf' in the Administrators tab and gave him permissions to 'IVR' and 'Conferences' only, so when he logs in to the PBX portion, it limits his access to what is allowed--- all fine!

But, on the Trix box interface, the user can still access 'Packages', 'System' and 'Settings' menus. Though his access to PBX menu is limited, he could make changes using 'System' and 'Settings' menus, which is obviously not safe at all

make his/her url end in

make his/her url end in /admin/config.php - that will put him into the pbxconfig (freepbx) manager only, the rest of the trixbox menus are not present
