If this ticket is fixed as part of OpenSAF4.5, then the immsv/README needs
to be updated. See comment in ticket #988:

** [tickets:#938] IMM: access control**

**Status:** review
**Milestone:** 4.5.0
**Created:** Tue Jun 10, 2014 05:30 AM UTC by Hans Feldt
**Last Updated:** Thu Aug 21, 2014 02:17 PM UTC
**Owner:** Hans Feldt

Requires #554 to provide authentication support.

In this first (last?) step the idea is to add coarse grained on/off type of 
authorization. Proposed is to allow access to the IMM service for the root user 
and members of one additional configurable linux group. Additionally members of 
the same group as immnd itself should be allowed access, that would include the 
opensaf processes.

Access control should be OFF by default in 4.5 for backwards compatibility 
reasons. The feature should be configurable in runtime via IMM. That is it 
should be possible to (optionally) configure an additional admin group name and 
then enable access control.

Access control should be controlled by a mode attribute with values: DISABLED, 
PERMISSIVE (just checking and reporting violations) and ENFORCING (ENABLED)

Disabling access control should only be allowed by the root user.
