I have a custom web application that integrates with a SharePoint (MOSS 2007) solution. I would like to add role-based access to pages in this custom web application, with only users in a specified SharePoint group or with a specific role being able to access them. Other users being sent to the default OOTB web page, giving the message "You Are Not Authorized to View This Page".
Can anyone point me towards tutorials on how to implement this, and how to control access on each custom page?
Please note, these pages are part of the custom web application, and are NOT created via the SharePoint API or interface.
Thanks, MagicAndi.
Update
Just to make you aware, I am hoping for a solution where we can make use of the SharePoint functionality to extend security trimming or item permissions to limit access to the custom web application pages. I already have code to check a user's SPGroup on page load, and to redirect if required. Thanks.
