System group for site creation

[zeldoune]

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to distinguish between different user categories at the share interface level. My purpose is to enable some users to create a site and disable other ones to do it. My study of Alfrersco lead me to search a solution with Alfresco system groups. If I have understand, Alfresco system group are Administrators and everyone. I would like to create a third group and configure the permissions or at least the share user interface on account of those groups (proposing to create a site only to my new group and not for everyone).
I need your help to know if :
1) Is it possible and how ?
2) or if it's not possible what can I do to disable site creation for specific a group of user ?


I'm working with Alfrsco community 4.0.e

Thanks

There is an article in the wiki about this: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Site_Service#Controlling_who_can_create_sites

Hi,
thanks for your answer.
I had already saw this article.
Fot he first part I manage to control site creation permission. But I don't find how to create a specific authority for which I can enable site creation. I only manage to disable site creation for everyone and enable it for administrators. But I need a third group/authority. I don't understant where I can create this authority.
(dynamic authorities (I suppose authorities created from the admin console) are not suported in this situation)

thanks

I finally found the solution.
I was wrong thinking that's impossible to create a non dynamic authority from the admin console.
A group can be created from the admin interface (for exemple SITE_ADMINISTRATORS) and be "called" from the public-services-security-context.xml file.
