Hi,

We have a website and we're looking (assuming this is possible) to integrate a CMS within it, so users can create their own pages (just text).  Our requirements for this projects are:

1.) Needs to integrate with our Active Directory.
2.) Simple administration so users can easily create/update their pages.

I'm sure #2 isn't an issue; not sure about #1.  My main concern is trying to integrate a CMS into a website.  My knowledge of CMS' is that they are the website, so not sure how that would work.

Thanks.

DNN has an extension to plug in active directory authentication, so that is possible. As for integrating with a current website, generally DNN would replace an existing website. Though it is possible to try to integrate, it depends on how the existing website currently functions

 Keep in kmind that DNN is not a CMS, it's a development framework that includes some CMS functionality.  You normally would not integrate DNN with a website, DNN would become your web site.
