This property defines a list additional records that will be added into permission table for newly created LinkServer users. It is used to build a permissions table when a new user account is created. The table has two fields:
| • | Context mask, specifying the range of contexts where the record applies; |
| • | Permission level of the user in every such context. |
Context masks may contain a special "%" character. It will be replaced by the new user's username during account creation.
|
Example: If the context mask field of the additional permissions table contains users.%.alerts and the new user's name is john, his permissions table will contain a record for users.john.alerts. |
Additional Permissions is very similar to Default User Permissions table. The difference is that Default User Permissions help to quickly set up permissions of new users just by clicking on several check boxes while Additional Permissions provide a more fine-grained control based on direct specification of user permission table records.
|
Additional permissions table has higher priority than Default User Permissions. Records from additional permissions table are added into permissions table of a new user before records that are specified by Default User Permissions. |
