[dokuwiki] Hostbased ACLs

Hello...

Maybe this is a more appropriate forum than bugs.splitbrain.org... Anyway I am just taking Bug#510 [1] here, because I rather wanted to hear someone elses Opinion on what I did:

I wanted to add the ability to allow Hostbased read access - and still allow users to log in to gain higher rights like editing.

I decided to have "host accounts" (<fqdn>:*:<some fullname>:<some email>:<groups>) in the auth-Backends database, so that I could assign groups to FQDNs. I have only tested against Release 2005-07-13 and ''$conf['authtype'] = 'plain';'' but maybe it also works with different methods.

After battling some time with darcs, I seem now to have a 11Kb patch file for 10 lines added to inc/auth.php - seems like the last TAG I have is the release of 2005-07-13. How do I change that?

Me testing against current devel takes some time, because I'd need to upgrade my install to devel first.

bye
Christian
