Hi, Joachim ! Hierarchical authorisation is currently available for inetnum and domain objects.

From the HELP & HOWTO document:

- You can protect against people *creating* (only creating) objects direct (one level) below in the hierarchy of an object type (only for 'inetnum:/domain:' objects) by using your maintainer in a 'mnt-lower:' attribute. The authorization method of this maintainer object will then be used upon creation of any object direct below the object that contains the 'mnt-lower:' attribute. This is also mentioned in the Release Notes of the new software. Hope this helps. Regards, Ambrose Magee ____________________________ RIPE Database Administration.
