[DGD] Access

[pete at ana.sk]

>From auto.c:

static mixed *file_info(string path)
{
    string name, *files;
    mixed *info;
    int i, sz;
    object obj;

    CHECKARG(path, 1, "file_info");
    if (!this_object()) {
        error("Access denied");
    }

    name = object_name(this_object());
    path = ::find_object(DRIVER)->normalize_path(path, name + 
"/..", creator);
    if (creator != "System" &&
        !::find_object(ACCESSD)->access(name, path, 
READ_ACCESS)) {
        error("Access denied");
    }


As you see, the first argument to access is ALWAYS object name 
of this object, which NEVER match any access rule except global 
ones. So what is this all good for???
