Access rights + WebDAV/apache

[Manuel VACELET <ma...@st.com>]

Hi all,

I use subversion 1.0.6 with WebDAV on my server. I try to override an 
access control definition and corresponding behaviour is not determinist.
Example:
-->8-----------------------
[/]
*=r
@members=rw

[/]
*=
@authors=rw
-->8-----------------------

Sometimes @authors have access to /, sometimes they can't ...

Is this possible to override a access definition ?

Regards,
Manuel

Manuel,

It seems like you cannot restrict rights that were already granted on 
the same path.
In your example, if you grant read access to everyone, then it cannot be 
restricted later on the same section.
You can restrict access to a sub-section though (e.g. [/private] here).

I know this is an issue, and it is not documented...

Does anyone else have an idea?

Nicolas
