According to our company IT security policy we can't make CMS functionality public. Is there any way to keep 2 sites pointing to same database? Then we can make one site without CMS capability and one site with CMS capability.

Any suggestion to achieve this

Thanks

no, this is not a supported scenario.

there are a number of CMS modules on www.snowcovered.com, which provide additional CMS workflow capabilities and might be of help.

Hi,

You may try our module Portal Keeper (http://www.aricie.com/en/products/simple-modules/portalkeeper.aspx), which allows to disable CMS features according to IP addresses or to domain aliases in use.

You can for instance prevent power users from connecting from an external URL, while allowing them to connect from the local intranet access.

But I achieved my objective by

1. Create 2 URL’s: one for live site which has public access, another one (portal alias) for CMS site which available only on intranet.

2.Point each URL to two different folders(same DNN content) : live site is pointed to a folder with login controls are visible false, CMS site is pointed to a folder with login controls are visible true

3.each web.config is pointed to same database

 it works fine for me. Any comments/suggestion on security or performance issues please

Thanks

you will need to implement a sync mechanism for files in /portals and cannot use file based caching.
