Hi all,

I was wondering how can I set up a permission group (e.g. "SiteAdmins")
that can effectively do any thing available with the TRAC_ADMIN permission,
just excluding the ability to control plugins (meaning install new ones and
enable / disable existing ones).

In case you wonder why I want this:
it seems that plugins may expose the server to security threats,
since any user with the ability to install and enable plugins can write a
plugin
that simply gives him control over the server (with access rights as the
user running apache).
I have a multi-environment setup, and I want to be able to give management
rights to
project-managers for their own Trac environments, without allowing them to
take over the server.

Any advice is appreciated,
as well as comments / discussion regarding the security considerations I
have raised.

Itamar O.
