Authentication against users in a table

rade.todorovichJul 1 2004 — edited Mar 15 2005
I am somewhat familiar with JAZN authentication but here is what I need to do and would GREATLY appreciate as much details as you can provide:

Say, I have a table USERS(USER_ID, NAME, ...) and several other tables in the DB. Let's say I have another table ADDRESS(ID, USER_ID, ADDRESS, ...). Several things needs to be done:

1. When user attempts to access a Input Form page to add new record in ADDRESS, a login screen should appear. I KNOW how to do this with either basic or form based authentication. However in this case user credentials will be stored using jazn tool.
2. Since I need USER_ID to be passed to my Input Form page I believe that I cannot use jazn for this, but rather to authenticate against my USERS table. How?
3. In this case (authentication against my USERS table) where the paswords are kept?
4. Also in this case, is it possible to provide several levels of access, ie all to managers, some to data enter people etc.


We are new to Oracle and JDev so any help is appreciated. The more the better...

Cheers!
Rade
