Hi developers, Antoine,

I need some information from you. Your feedback will help me in 
implementation of the details of PsBase3 framework.

Is the admin guide available at the intranet pages the current and final 
one?
I mean the following urls:
AS: 
https://intranet.geant.net/sites/Services/SA2/T3/Pages/LatestMDMAdminGuideAuthenticationService.aspx
LS: 
https://intranet.geant.net/sites/Services/SA2/T3/Pages/LatestMDMAdminGuideLookupService.aspx
SQL MA: 
https://intranet.geant.net/sites/Services/SA2/T3/Pages/LatestMDMAdminGuideSQLMA.aspx
RRD MA: 
https://intranet.geant.net/sites/Services/SA2/T3/Pages/LatestMDMAdminGuideRRDMA.aspx

I noticed that some information there is missing ie.:

1. Reading the discussion about testing the latest version of AS service 
(1.3), and talking to Lukasz Ogrodowczyk I have noticed that despite 
Authentication, there is also Authorization and attributes feature 
implemented. Am I right Candido?
This functionality is not mentioned in the Admin Guide. As far as I know 
PsBase2 uses only authentication feature. Probably that's the reason it 
is missing in the Admin Guide.

2. Do you want me to extend PsBase3 to implement also additional 
features of AS service, Antoine?

3. By the way I have also checked the problem with LS registration and 
eXist DB which Candido reported. eXist DB is not needed to register to 
the LS service, but you have to implement your own DataSource instead of 
using the one that is implemented in PsBase2 (it reads metadata from 
database).
Then you provide it (the same as the one included in the PsBas2) in the 
configuration file. Sorry for responding so late, but there is no 
documentation available for PsBase2 and all I can do is reverse 
engineering :)

4. When I try to access RRD MA documentation it returns me 404 not found 
response.

5. For the SQL MA documentation the configuration section is missing.

6. For the LS service there is a configuration parameter to enable gLS 
registration, but Krzysztof told me that is only enabling sending 
registration messages from hLS to gLS. Am I right Krzysztof?
There is probably no configuration parameter that sets the LS in the gLS 
mode. Krzysztof told me that there is a code that probably implements 
this feature, but this is not available via configuration interface. If 
I have written anything wrong, correct me Krzysztof, please ;)
Antoine: Do you know if the current implementation of LS service 
supports gLS mode or just hLS?

Thanks for your answers in advance ;)

Best regards
Blazej
