Inherited node ACL ------------------ Key: GTNPORTAL-1230 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-1230 Project: GateIn Portal Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Security Reporter: Thomas Heute Fix For: 3.2.0-GA As of now it is difficult to maintain gazillion of nodes even in a hierarchy. when you have: A<-B<-C (B is a child of A, C is a child of B) and you want to restrict access to that tree, you need to define security rules on the 3 *pages*. (and modify the pages everytime you want to change a restriction) As of now we don't have security restrictions on the node itself, we would need to add this feature and make it inherited. the Picketlink Authz framework can do this effectively, but we would need an answer to this issue prior to the integration. We should be able to tell that A is restricted to admins, and on an access to C check for parent restrictions. It should also be possible to add a restriction on B. In some cases, one node may want to break the inheritance to define other rules. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
