[OpenIndiana-discuss] Publish access to a local IPS repository.

[Christopher X. Candreva]

I've read many pages on publishing your own repo, and am stumped on just one 
thing: How do you secure publish access to a local repo running as a service 
?

I had created a number of packages using my own script and publishing just 
to the local file system. I am now trying out the pkgbuild script, which 
works from rpm-like spec files, and publishes direct to the service. THe 
main Oracle write-up I found says just to set the read-only property to 
"false".

After this I can publish with my normal account. Does this mean anyone on 
the local machine, or anyone with access to the service via the network ? 
How do I secure the repo such that only specific local accounts can publish 
to it ?
