Re: [IBMiOSS] Node in-house auth?

Justin,

In general, node and other scripting languages are geared for application level security instead of OS security.

<vendor>
If you are open to vendor help, look at our Profound.js offering. Our Profound.js connector makes interfacing between ILE and node simple and your node applications will honor your system's object level and data level security.

That sounds OK for a public-facing site, but I'd think internally people would want to leverage OS security. Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe Node is mostly in public-facing stuff.


On a side note, is this list appropriate for these basic questions? Many projects have a user list and a dev list. I'm not sure if this list is appropriate for user questions. If not, please let me know.

I use home grown authorisation because I want the app(s) to be as platform agnostic as possible. I haven't really examined how Kerberos could possibly assist with IBMi object level authority.
