Attaching derby-4708-01-aa-clarification.diff and a corresponding tarball of 
html pages (derby-4708-01-aa-clarification.tar). This patch clarifies that 
policy restrictions are needed for import/export as well as for backup/restore.

Touches the following files:

M      src/adminguide/tadminnetservcustom.dita
M      src/adminguide/tadminnetservbasic.dita


> In the Administration Guide, clarify that you need to adjust file permissions 
> in your security policy in order to prevent import/export from accessing 
> sensitive files outside your Derby subsystem

> Right now the Derby Administration Guide advises users to adjust permissions 
> in their security policy file in order to prevent backup/restore from 
> clobbering and inspecting sensitive files outside the Derby subsystem. This 
> advice can be found in the section titled "Basic Network Server security 
> policy". This section should be clarified to note that you can suffer similar 
> exposure from the export/import procedures and that you need to adjust your 
> security policy for them as well.
> Note that this section does link to another, detailed section, which 
> describes the security policy implications for both backup/restore and 
> export/import: "Customizing the Network Server's security policy".
