Question

I am designing a website, which has a login module.. here 3 users/persons (mainly) will be accessing the login page:

1. Superadmin (domain owner)
2. Local admin (under domain owner)
3. Normal user (under local admin)

Where domain owner has rights over local admin & normal user, and local admin has rights over normal user..

Now, how can I differentiate the login type for the above users?

I have tried putting a dropdown, and adding the three members, but I don’t feel it looks good.

Any ideas of doing the above scenario?

Answer 1

In a normal website these would be handled as roles.

During user creation of later you assign roles to users.

Your login page only needs a user to enter username and password.

You could easily persist the user-role relationship in a database.

Asp.net has first class support for roles in the RoleProviders.

You can use roles to authorize which users have access to what parts of the website.
