Usage

For each level of an aclentry, only a certain combination of tasks can be performed by a user. These tasks are represented by permitted attributes being set to true. For example, if the level specified is noaccess, only the readpublicdocs and writepublicdocs attributes default to true; the rest default to false. If the level specified is manager, the default value for all the attributes is true and cannot be set to false, except deletedocs, which can be set to false at the manager level. You override attribute values by selecting or deselecting editable access privileges in the ACL dialog box. To view all the combinations for each level, refer to the Access Control List Properties box in the Notes client.

The DXL output for a database often contains more than one aclentry tag. This happens because there is often more than one level of ACL access assigned to the users of a database.
