     1= Trac Permissions = 
     2[[TracGuideToc]] 
     3 
     4Trac uses a simple but flexible permission system to control what users can and can't access. 
     5 
     6Permission privileges are managed using the [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] tool. 
     7 
     8Regular visitors, non-authenticated users, accessing the system are assigned the default  
     9role (''user'') named {{{anonymous}}}.  
     10Assign permissions to the {{{anonymous}}} user to set privileges for non-authenticated/guest users. 
     11 
     12In addition to these privileges users can be granted additional individual  
     13rights in effect when authenticated and logged into the system. 
     14 
     15== Available Privileges == 
     16 
     17To enable all privileges for a user, use the `TRAC_ADMIN` permission. Having `TRAC_ADMIN` is like being `root` on a *NIX system, it will let you do anything you want. 
     18 
     19Otherwise, individual privileges can be assigned to users for the various different functional areas of Trac:

     70== Granting Privileges == 
     71 
     72Currently the only way to grant privileges to users is by using the `trac-admin` script. The current set of privileges can be listed with the following command: 
     73{{{ 
     74  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission list 
     75}}} 
     76 
     77This command will allow the user ''bob'' to delete reports: 
     78{{{ 
     79  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob REPORT_DELETE 
     80}}} 
     81 
     82== Permission Groups == 
     83 
     84Permissions can be grouped together to form roles such as ''developer'', ''admin'', etc. 
     85{{{ 
     86  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer WIKI_ADMIN 
     87  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer REPORT_ADMIN 
     88  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer TICKET_MODIFY 
     89  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob developer 
     90  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add john developer 
     91}}} 
     92 
     93== Default Permissions == 
     94 
     95Granting privileges to the special user ''anonymous'' can be used to control what an anonymous user can do before they have logged in. 
     96 
     97In the same way, privileges granted to the special user ''authenticated'' will apply to any authenticated (logged in) user.
