General instructions on how to setup Authentication/Authorization

Authenticate users in Hudson

Enable security on your Hudson site to authenticate users against a CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise or CollabNet Teamforge server.

1. In your Hudson installation, go to Manage Hudson> Configure System > Hudson.
2. Select Enable Security.# In the Access Control section, select CollabNet Security Realm to authenticate usernames and passwords.
3. Enter the URL for your SourceForge or Teamforge site. For example, https://forge.collab.net.
4. Click Save.

Authorize users at the site level

At the site level, you can assign administration or read-only permissions to Teamforge users and groups.

1. Make sure that the Authentication and Authorization plugin is installed and you've enabled CollabNet security.
2. In your Hudson installation, go to Manage Hudson > Configure System > Hudson.
   1. Select CollabNet Authorization to specify what Teamforge users or groups can do on the site.
   2. Enter a comma-separated list of users or groups to whom you want to grant administer privileges.
      1. Note: A Teamforge site administrator is automatically assigned administer privileges in Hudson.
   3. Specify the Teamforge users or groups to whom you want to grant read-only privileges.
      1. Note: To grant users permissions within individual projects, see these instructions.
3. Click Save.

Authorize users at the project level

Assign Teamforge users default permissions for a Hudson project, or set up user roles for that project in Teamforge.
Note: While configuring project-level access, you associate one Teamforge project to one Hudson project

1. In the Hudson project, click Configure.
2. In the Authorization from CollabNet section, enter the name of the Teamforge project. This project is used to determine what its members can do in the Hudson project.
3. To automatically set up Hudson -related roles in the Teamforge project, select Create Hudson roles on CollabNet server in this project.
4. Here's an example of the roles.
   

1. 1. Once the roles are available in Teamforge, the project administrator must assign them to project members to specify the things they can do in the Hudson project.
2. To give project administrators full permissions in the project, and all members read permission, select Grant default permissions to members of the project.
   1. Note: To be able to do this, you must be the Teamforge project administrator
3. Click Save.

Assign project-level Hudson roles in Teamforge

As a Teamforge project administrator, assign roles to individual users and groups for the associated Hudson job.
Hudson -related roles are automatically created in a Teamforge project when the Create Hudson roles on CollabNet server in this project option is selected in Hudson .
