Nope, first step already fails (commit 3) if there are "[/]\n* = r" lines present in authz file.
It works if I create authz file like this (note the usage of rw everywhere): [/A/B] pm = rw [/X/Y] pm = rw --------------------------------- It DOES NOTwork if I create authz file like this: [/A/B] pm = rw [/X/Y] pm = r --------------------------------- Any further ideas? Thanks for the test/hints though, b.
