Software distribution nightmare.

Question

Hi

 

We are facing an interesting scenario. We have 1 site with 2 DP. All Depts that have their own techs who have access to buid and deploy packages.

 

The problm we are facing is you have Dept A that has a software with limited Licences. They want to deploy this only to users who they approve within their Dept.

 

How can I reistrict Dept B from not deploying that same software to another machine? I have tried to tweak around the class and instance permission with no success.

 

How can I make it so if you biuld the package you can deploy it but no one else?

 

Thanks

Remove the permissions (instance-level) for Department B on the package in question. Another option would be to put a note in the software package that indicates that Department B should not use the package.

 

Also, try not to solve people problems with technology.

I tried your suggestion with no luck. This is what I have

 

Package Class Permisions on Dept A - Read, Distribute, Create, Delegate

Package Class Permisions on Dept B - Read, Distribute, Create, Delegate

 

Package Instance permission for Dept A - Read, Modify, Delete, Distribute

 

 

Dept B can still deploy the package to their dept coll.

 

Am I missing anything? lol if only technology can do that . Life will be very simple. :D

 

Thanks
