| 2 | |
| 3 | == Description == |
| 4 | |
| 5 | A permission system-group provider for Trac. It asks linux / unix system |
| 6 | to which groups a validated user belongs. If one of this groups matches |
| 7 | a permission group name created with trac-admin permission add command, |
| 8 | these permissions are enabled for logged-on user. |

| 26 | == Example == |
| 27 | |
| 28 | There is no configuration to do. After installing this plugin trac is able |
| 29 | to validate an authorized user auser against the unix system group entries belonging to unix system user auser. The benefit is, that one can now create |
| 30 | trac groups named like system-groups and trac will accept permissions attached |
| 31 | to this group for a user, if the unix pendant of this username belongs to this group. This helps e.g. PAM users to avoid managing group permissions twice, here no autz file is needed anymore. |
