Hey guys

Which is the difference between the “User and group security” created from Servoy Developer versus the Users and Groups created from the Servoy Server Admin page?

I see that the users and group created from Servoy Server admin page are saved on the repository database but the users and group created from Servoy Developer i can´t figure out where are saved.

What is kept by the Application Server in the repository DB (and that is not specific to only 1 solution), developer stores in the “Resources project” attached to the active solution.  
The tool-tip of the “Resources” node in Solution Explorer view shows the name of that project. You can browse it using the “Navigator” or “Project Explorer” views (Window → Show view).

Users/groups and table security are stored in the resources project (.sec files in security & datasources/serverName); form security is stored in the solution project, besides the .frm files.  
But they both represent the same thing in the end; when you import the solution to the Application Server the repository DB gets updated using developer settings, depending on the import options.
