man torrus_acledit (Administration système) - Manage Torrus access control lists (ACLs).

NAME

acledit - Manage Torrus access control lists (ACLs).

SYNOPSIS

torrus acledit [options...]

DESCRIPTION

This command manages the Torrus access control lists. Each user is identified by user ID, and has a set of attributes. Currently supported attributes are CWcn (common name) and CWuserPasswordMD5 (MD5 digest of the user's password).

Each user belongs to one or several groups. Each group has its own set of privileges. A privilege is identified by privilege name and object name. Currently only one privilege name is supported: CWDisplayTree, and the object name is the name of the tree that this group is allowed to browse.

User authorization in the web interface is controlled by the CW$Torrus::ApacheHandler::authorizeUsers variable in torrus-siteconfig.pl.

--delgroup=GROUP

--permit=PRIVILEGE
Grants privilege to group(s). Currently supported privileges are: CWDisplayTree for displaying a datasource tree, and CWDisplayAdmInfo for displaying the administrative information (all significant parameters for a given datasource leaf).
--deny=PRIVILEGE
Revokes group(s) privilege.
--for=OBJECT
Object for which privileges are granted or revoked. Currently it must be the name of the tree for which the CWDisplayTree and CWDisplayAdmInfo privilegs are granted or revoked. The asterisk (*) instead of the object name assigns the privilege for all objects.
