It is possible to achieve what you want with ADM. It requires writing
some scheme code. This is what we currently use at QUALCOMM. I have
some problems with this approach (I'm the only one at our site that
knows scheme!), and I will be producing a C based solution using a
database of permissions in the not-too-distant future. We may decide
to release my work to the AFS community, but no guarantees just yet.
