[opencms-dev] Permissions for a site in OpenCMS6beta1

[Sebastian Himberger]

Hi,

you can switch to the root site ("/") and set the permissions for the 
sites (e.g. /sites/default) using the ACLs. I'm currently at the same 
point and haven't found any elegant solution. The easiest way is to deny 
access for the groups you don't want to look at the site. I also tried 
to deny access to the /sites folder and then explicitly allow one group 
to access a specific site (e.g. grant access on /sites/demosite) but 
this didn't worked so far (perhaps i made mistake).

Btw: Deny permissions are added up while inheritance and only grant 
permissions overwrite each other (if the checkbox is marked). Keep this 
in mind while editing your ACLs (i fell into this pitfall more than once 
;)).

I hope this helps.

best regards
Sebastian
