Hi Larry,

Unfortunately resource level security is still missing in OGSA-DAI. In
addition to this we also wish to add activity level access control.

If this is a feature you require then please let us know what you
want. If users ask for a feature it will push it further up our
priority list. In addition, if other users on the list are also
interested in this functionality please let us know.

Subject: Data Resource level security in OGSA-DAI (WSRF)

Hi,
        I'm aware that the data services can be made secure with the
security
configurations, such as gridmap, GSI-SecureConversation etc. Can i ask
if
data resources themselves can be configured secured also (resource
level
security). I'm aware that GT4 has the provisions programmatically for
resources to be configured with security. I'll like to find out if
there is
anyhing like that in OGSA-DAI framework?
