[Opensim-users] Permissions and common sense]

[John Sheridan]

I wonder if a facility such as this could be added to the UGAIM as well 
as standalone?  Aside from preventing a user to log in to the grid 
itself, it could as well serve as a centralized black-list for the 
regions on that grid.  Mainly I'm thinking that users entered into a 
grid-ban table on the UGAIM would be ignored by UUID and IP not only by 
all grid services but as well by the regions.  When a region connects to 
the grid it can fetch this list from the grid server and protect itself 
by flat out ignoring all requests from that IP and UUID.  If a region 
bearing that IP were to try and connect itself to the grid, it would be 
downright denied. 

Thanks, :)
