need granular security

[Guest]

hey all,
i'm creating an intranet application and i need very granular security down
to the user what's the best way to accomplish this? For instance, a user
accesses the site and can only see certain links or records available to that
user.

thanks,
rodchar

Use Forms Authentication with Roles.
You can start with the default Membership and Roles providers.

In that case, how will access to the database be setup thru the data access
layer? what user/role should perform the functions to update the database?

I'm not following you. Access to your database happens through a connection
string in your web.config. It could be the same one that's used by the
Membership / Roles/ profiles providers, or it might not.
