Home Online Manual Remote Administration Guide Database Connectivity GlassRoom Database Structure

 Glassroom uses these two database tables to authenticate users and store user profiles :

Database table Usage
Authentication table In this table usernames and passwords are stored. Each row contains two fields : username field and password field. Names of fields are editable in Glassroom control panel.
User information table User information fields like real name, email, gender, country, age, and permission flags are stored in this table. Names of fields are editable in Glassroom control panel and you can match them with your existing database fieldnames.

The username in authentication table and nickname in user information table are primary keys.

Glassroom uses two interface classes to access to these tables. These interfaces can be defined externally, so you can change them to match your system needs. For example you can write an interface for Win-NT authentication, and store user information in a table on a remote machine or you can implement your specific login restrictions.
