> unless someone want to code up some 'orribly complex > group rights nonsense. I should just shut up, and I will. But I don't intend something complex. I'm just saying (probably poorly) that if you're giving some access to users whose names aren't previously known to a file server, the file server needs to have some notion of those users' rights. So you probably need to mess with fossil (and maybe others) and think/work out the issues. I was just thinking of having default rights (maybe nothing) for unknown users in trusted domains and the ability to override that default for specific users/domains, probably by adding them to a local group. I thought about having the AS manage group membership and pass those things around, but I didn't mean to suggest that -- that probably would get "'orribly complex". It just sounded to me like Andrey was saying fossil wouldn't be affected, and Ron was saying that the file servers could be ignored because we weren't concerned with serving files. I probably misunderstood. Sorry for the noise, Micah
