Environment Security with the Jet Data Manager
Overview
You can limit access to certain functionality to members of specific Active Directory (AD) groups. The JDM will also log events in the environment to the Server Log table in the repository. This can be disabled by clearing Enable detailed logging under Additional Settings for the environment.
