- This is the source for my error fix for MultiUser. I have tested this for
- several months now, without problems. The reason for this late release is that
- I could not contact Geert Uytterhoeven. Perhaps now he contacts me ;-)
-
- The fix is for the error in the routine called by the "login OWN" command which
- is essential for every MultiUser environement with access control to libraries.
- The reason for this is that libraries are all opened by a task called ramlib
- which is owned by nobody after startup. So if you want to restrict access to
- complete packages you have to "login OWN TASK ramlib" after the login in
- user-startup to provide automatic access to the libraries a user may access.
- If you don't know of what I'm talking either ask me (email, Rastan@IRC) or
- if you are happy with the old version, forget this fix.
-
- You need the full release 1.8 to make use of this file. This file only contains
- the corrected multiuser.library.
