Don't allow unprivileged the ModifySelf right then?  When combined with 
the password script from the wiki or external auth, that right may be 
unnecessary.

[rt-users] Adding users to groups to share tickets

2008-12-04 Thread Jason p
Ok, I have been trying to figure this out for the past week.  Simple problem
we have many customers that share the same queue (support), now some of our
larger customers want to be able to group their users so that they can view
all their own tickets generated by anyone in their company.

 I can not find a way to do this without allowing the users to see all
tickets in the entire support queue ( This would be very bad ) as it is made
up of many competing companies. It would be a Pain to have to create a new
support queue for every customer.



Any Help would be great.

Thanks

Jason

Jason,


I can think of only 1 way. It would mean finding some way to get all 
members of a group listed as the Requestors for each ticket in the 
queue. Then you grant ShowTicket to the Requestor role only. I'm not 
sure how to get all of the members of a certain group included as 
members of the Requestor role for a ticket, but that would be the way to 
do it. Hope this helps.

 Other than adding them by hand each time they create a ticket (MAJOR PITA)
I don't know of anyway to do what your describing.   This seems like it
should be such a simple task, and that a lot of companies would want this
feature.

You could probably automate something through scrips, but the trouble with  
using watcher roles for this is that everyone would drown in email -  
people wouldn't just be able to see their company's tickets, they'd also  
receive every correspondence.

I think RT's intent is to implement access control at the queue level - it  
would be difficult to limit access within a queue.

2008-12-04 Thread Kenneth Crocker
Jason,


I agree with Stephen. I was only trying to address the method by which 
only a group of Requestors could see their tickets only in a queue. Yes, 
you would have to write some scrips to add group members to the 
Requestor role of the ticket AND, as Stephen mentioned, you would have 
an awful lot of emial churned out, unless you also turned of the 
Standard RT notifications and created your own. I believe it CAN be 
done, but it WILL be a lot of work.
