For those web only apps, where the app is hosted somewhere remote from client, how does client create users, roles, permissions and etc.? Is there a web version of "Security Editor"? And what if the user does not want to buy ES just to connect to remote database for managing users on the hosting machine?



Thanks!

If you are hosting remotely, and depending upon you hosting services, you can RDP into the remote server or just connect to that server using an SQL connection.  In some cases you can also setup a software VPN for some hosting services as well which would also solve the problem of connecting to the database.

No, this will not likely ever be an option.

Doing this requires two code bases and something that has been discussed in great length within development meetings.  There is an incredible amount of code in the security editor and to port this over for web would far exceed its use.  If this were a tool that you lived within it would be one thing, but this is ONLY used for initial and setup purposes.
