(thanks for the pointers yesterday, by the way, all working now!)
Hi again,
As part of taming our RT system, I’m planning on renaming the General
queue as Inbox, and removing the rights for support staff to reply
directly from the General queue without filing the ticket in the
appropriate queue first, coupled with a TakeOnCorrespond scrip. I’ve
just removed the ReplyToTicket right from all users for the General
queue, and the Rights Matrix extension (thanks again Todd) shows that I
have no ReplyToTicket right, but I still get the Reply option in the
menu, and it still works.
What is going on? Where to start fault-finding?
This is RT 3.6.4
Best Regards
Howie

Howard,
You might want to look at what you granted globally to "Roles". WE
allow the “ReplyToTicket” right globally to the Requestor AND the CC
Watcher, since they might want to if they got something in the first
place. Anyway, whatever you take away at the queue level can be ignored
if the right has been granted at the global level to certain
groups/roles, etc. Hope this helps.

IIRC, ModifyTicket allows reply. I may be mistaken though.

I know 
I’m using it already - it’s very handy. But it says I don’t
have the right, which is what I thought was the case…

Todd,
You're right and you SHOULD toot your horn! (Blessed is he that toots
his own horn. For he that does NOT toot his own horn, it will NOT be
tooted!!!) HA! HA! An old proverb ;-).
When I was using 3.4.4, Rights Matrix worked GREAT!. However, I’m
having some trouble installing Rights Matrix in my 3.6.4 version. I’ve
loaded everything OK in our /xxx/rt/src directory, but when I try to run
the make install, it asks for the path. No matter what I type in, it
doesn’t like the path I give it (/xxx/rt/rt-3.6.4/lib). I’ve tried
adding a slash at the end, just typing in the lib part and several other
variations and it just doesn’t work.
I think I need to change something in one of the src files but
don’t know which one or why or what to change. Do you have any ideas?
Thanks.
Kenn
