We've been running DSpace with Apache IP authentication dealing with
overall IP authentication. Now Im hoping to get rid of Apache
configurations and implementing the same behaviour with DSpace IP
authentication.

The basic IP authentication seems to be working well in DSpace. I am
able to restric Individual community / collection access based on IP
address. This doesnt restric the access to the items already in the
db.

So, Im having problems with all items having the default read rights
for anonymous users, even if the collection / community access is
restricted. The authorization policy tool doesnt seem to be able to do
this (see: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-520). I could remove
the policies by hand of course, but having to do this with about 4000
itemsit  doesnt seem to make much sense.

What Im looking for now is an SQL spell, that would remove the
anonymous read rights for every item / bitstream in DSpace, and then
replace it with read right for specific group. Any concerns on this
are appreciated? Or if someone has an idea on how to get around this,
let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Mika
