Setting the Administration Role

The administration role is set during installation but can be changed manually in the web.config file.

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlas Copco\ToolsNet. If the installation path was changed from default during the installation of ToolsNet 8, navigate to that path instead.

  2. Open web.config in a text editor, for example Notepad.

    The default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlas Copco\ToolsNet. If the default path was changed during installation of ToolsNet 8, use that path instead.

  3. In the appSettings element, add the following line:

    <add key="Roles.Administrator" value="SID" />

    Replace SID with an S-X-X-X, where X is an integer.

    SIDs are Windows Security Identifiers that are used to uniquely identify a security principal or security group.

  4. In the system.web element, add the following line:

    <authentication mode="Windows" />

  5. Save the file.
