Submit Filtering

sunil_j

Hi,

I am trying to configure Submit Filtering to implement file level permissioning.

Let me first explain what I am trying to achieve. The kind of security I want is that only the members of development (dev) groups can edit html file types and only the members of the artists (art) group can edit the gif, jpg file types.

I had created a branch named test. I created a workarea named upload and uploaded my webcontent in the "upload" workarea. I have 2 more workareas - artists for art group, and development for dev group.

And then I have the submit.cfg as follows

CASE-SENSITIVE = YES
RULES
{
^/default/main/test
{
\.htm?l$
{
owner=hst-pcyuk02\devmgr
group="hst-pcyuk02\\dev"
setaccess={hst-pcyuk02\iw:ALL,hst-pcyuk02\\dev:CHANGE,teamsite_users:READ}
}

\.(jpe?g|gif|swf)$
{
owner=hst-pcyuk02\artmgr
group="hst-pcyuk02\\art"
setaccess={hst-pcyuk02\iw:ALL,"hst-pcyuk02\\art:CHANGE",teamsite_users:READ}
}
}
}

When I did Submit-Direct from Upload workarea, it enforced the appropriate Access Controls as per the Submit.cfg. And then the ArtMgr logged into teamSite and did a get-latest for his workarea and DevMgr for development workarea.

But when devmgr or any member of the dev group (dev1, dev2) tries to edit a gif file, its allowing him to edit the file.
and Similarly it happens for the ArtMgr and the members of the art group (art1,art2) are able to edit the htm files.

Cansome let me know where I am doing wrong ?

My Envirnment :

TeamSite 5.5.2 running on Win NT with no SP or patches.

Kindly help me out.

Regards
Sunil
