View Full Version : What type of programmer do i need?!??
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 02:39 PM Looking for someone to program a secure database of sorts on my server.
Need it to have multiple user levels with options/restrictions for each level. Each user would have their own mini-database they could add and delete and change info on, BUT could not see anyone elses info (people with their own mini-database).
However, i need a level ontop of it all where i can add, delete, change, and view all users info and entries and have a search feature.
Not advertising or anything, just wondering... What type of programmer do i need for this, in what programming language, and what should i expect to pay??
Also i would like the design to look half descent, nothing flashy, just smooth and clean.. but not just plain text either.
Thanks for input! Please point me in right direction:)
(BTW: Database will not contain any crucial billing information, but it will still need be secure to a degree)
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 02:41 PM Ah, i did forget one thing... I need the ability to setup the mini-database holders accounts and passwords. So each individual under me would need their own login/password prompt and i would need to be able to edit and change this info.
Thanks!
Corey Bryant 08-19-2004, 03:02 PM Are you on a *NIX or Windows platform?
If it is Windows, I would suggest ASP or maybe .NET. If it is *NIX, then PHP.
As far as the differences, that is the debate of the lifetime :) Personally, my programmers and myself prefer ASP. But if you do not like Windows, most of the time those people like PHP
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 03:43 PM Im sorry, totally forgot that bit of info...
It will be on a linux machine, most likely redhat as it looks at the moment.
Databases must not be limited as to amount of accounts or users either (with the exception of diskspace which i doubt will be a issue in this case).
Thanks, any idea on costs of something like this?
Corey Bryant 08-19-2004, 03:46 PM Then PHP & mySQL. But what do you want it to do?
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 06:15 PM Need a form that will pass information to two things.
To the database and to my perldesk.
So obiously the perldesk reg. form fields will have to be customized in order to retrieve, but thats another issue.
On this particular subject. I need two levels in the database:
Mine: Can add, delete, edit, search, all information(custoemr name, passwords,etc.) stored in the database and mini-databases(read on). I also need to be able to create mini-database levels underneath me.
Mini-Database Level: Someone at this level can use the forms to add, delete, edit, search information on customers (such as first/lastname, login, pass, server hostname, ip, etc. etc.). They should be able to edit and view all information in their section only, but not in the whole database or info in other "mini-databases" that i create.
Above that i need all the information to be passed and edit within My main database and within Perldesk at the same time the users edit it in their mini-database.
Im no programmer obviously so this is the best i can describe it really. Everything needs be passcoded and secure of course.
Corey Bryant 08-19-2004, 07:25 PM So basically you are looking for a program to verify a user & then have that user access to certain page(s)?
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 08:28 PM Basically yes, but also the ability to create customer info, etc. and the info needs be passed to perldesk, etc.
Something like that.
Corey Bryant 08-19-2004, 08:49 PM CGI or PHP could possibly work. I am not too familar at all with perldesk. I would put something in the request section here to see what you might come up with. I am sure there are many programmers that can build this for you
itsmesee 08-19-2004, 09:11 PM What do you think a fair price to pay would be on something like this??
Corey Bryant 08-20-2004, 08:37 AM I really could not state without seeing the full scope.
