Common misconfigurations
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Blocking user groups
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
When trying to deny access to a group of users, make sure that sharing does not
|
||||
allow them to create a way back in. When users are able to create a public link,
|
||||
the users can log themselves out and visit their own public link to access the
|
||||
files. Since at this point they are no user and therefor no member of the
|
||||
blocked group, they will be able to read and change the file.
|
||||
|
||||
The recommended work around is to create the same rule again, and deny access
|
||||
for all users that are ``not member of`` a group, that contains all users of
|
||||
your installation.
|
||||
|
||||
External storage
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
While access to files in external storages is not possible via Nextcloud, users
|
||||
that have direct access to the external storage, can of course change files
|
||||
there directly. Therefor it is recommended to disable the ``Allow users to mount
|
||||
external storage`` option, when trying to to completely lock out users.
