Does anybody know of a way to perform GridFTP's file permission authorization using a call out to an external component rather than simply mapping users to a unix user and replying on the unix file permissions to handle the authorization? Ideally I'd like for the call out service to be able to specify a restricted set of folders from all the folders that the unix user has permissions to access.
Is this type of thing possible with GT5? I've seen hints of people trying to do something like this with GT4 but I'm not sure if this is possible with the latest version.
