Sun Microsystems MEDIACENTER 2.1 - Manual (Page 135)

Chapter 9 Access Control Lists 9-3
...with the result that all users have read permission. For example, with only read
permission for a Sun MediaCenter server, a user can look up titles on the server, but
cannot play a stream.
Each instance of the ServerAcl file must contain a line that indicates the version
number of the file; this line must be the first uncommented line in the file. The
format of the version line is:
Version < number >
If the version line is missing or incorrectly formatted, or has an unsupported version
number, the MSM produces warning messages but continues to parse
ServerAcl .
9.4 Player ACL
There is no file for player ACLs. When you create a player (using
msmPlayerLookup ()), you, the creator, have full permissions—read, control, and
admin—for that player. You change permissions by assigning one of a set of access
levels to the
MsmAccessList structure. Permissions are assigned to a specific user.
TABLE 9-2 shows the permissions that you can specify:
Following creation of a player, the MSM consults the player's ACL before checking
ServerAcl .
