RE: Divide customer access

[Dieperink Alwin]

This is the way I solved my problem. I don't need to transfer PRs from one
base to another and don't need multi-database queries. I adapted gnatsweb so
that
- the list of databases isn't displayed anymore
- the database is fix and defined in gnatsweb-site.pl, which is different
for each customer
- the database parameter from the cookie or the URL (I don't remember
exactly) is always overriden by the setting in gnatsweb-site.pl
- each customer has a different URL
(http://<gnatsserver>/<customer-name>/gnatsweb.pl)
- with .htaccess files I protected the access to each database, allowing
only the customer to access his own database.

These were only few changes. If you're interested, I can send you more
details.

There is perhaps one idea that could be used as a workaround:  defining a
separate database for each customer.  It's probably too cumbersome to work
well (since I don't think there's any easy way to move bugs from one
database to another, nor to do queries across multiple databases) but 
it's a possibility.  

I think more options for conditional access to bugs would be a very
important feature for gnats (being able to see bugs you created only, or
seeing bugs in a certain category).  The 'Confidential' field is better than
nothing (and better than bugzilla) but not flexible enough for most closed
source software shops with multiple clients.
