Hi Guys :)
I've been digging a little and haven't been able to find if this functionality is in Bakery or not, so this "issue" is more a question than a support request. I basically want to know, is there is a way to let users only create an account for/sign into the site that they signed up on, plus the default install?
I'll have a 6 multisite setup initially, but each of the multisites have a different function and as such users would not have anything to do on the other sites, which is why I would like to prevent them from logging into those sites at all. The default site install is more or less a hub for the rest of the sites, which I would like all users to be able to log into. At the moment, I cannot think of a use case where a user (except admins) would ever want to log into another of the multisites.
If anyone has any ideas on the subject, I'm all ears to those too :)
Cheers!
Josh

dominict commentedRole sync would solve this if we had it. Then you could set a role for each server and remove access content permission on the remotes for authenticated, granting it to the created role for each server.

gregglesI agree this would be a great feature.

coltrane"users would not have anything to do on the other sites, which is why I would like to prevent them from logging into those sites at all"
but you also want to keep Bakery SSO for a small set of users?

jfarry commentedI don't understand how you drew the assumption of a small set of users?
Bakery SSO would cover the entire multisite install, but it would only let each user log into the site that they signed up for an account on, plus one other, instead of all sites.
Does that make sense? I'll have another go if it doesn't :)

jasonesser commentedpyrhoe,
I was reading through your reply to the question posted about Bakery SSO and would like a little more information. I have a multi-site installation that I have been operating using separate databases with user accounts created on each site. I have a number of users that need to have access to multiple sub-domains using a single password, but I would like to be able to control which users have accounts on each sub-domain. So, users would have access to the primary domain by default, then would be granted access to only the subdomains that they require authorization on. I am not able to determine from the comments if this is a function that Bakery SSO would allow for.
I am assuming that the primary domain would contain the user information for all user accounts, then each user would have to request access to the sub-domain. At that point, an admin would grant access to the sub-domain AFTER the user requests the access, correct?
Secondly, The sites that are currently in operation don't necessarily require addition to the bakery SSO account information, as they already have the user accounts created and most are associated to posted nodes, but I am regularly creating new sites for each new project and would like to simply future management tasks.
