[Opensim-users] Touch to open by other users not working?

[Justin Clark-Casey]

The IAR library load mechanism isn't in OpenSimulator at this point - I believe it's only in the Diva Distro currently.

Three seems to be some general problem with library objects at the moment, though this may only relate to scripts.

Another radical solution is to turn off permissions entirely via

serverside_object_permissions = true

in [Startup] in OpenSim.ini but I suspect this is used rarely enough where some bugs may lurk and is probably too 
radical for what Ramesh needs.
