You can use the Perl API by calling GrantRight/RevokeRight on the RT::Principals you want to grant rights to. Arguments are the right name and the target object on which the right should be granted (for your case, likely a loaded RT::Queue or RT::System for global). The doc for the Perl API is available by using perldoc on the RT source lib files, or browsing online here: http://bestpractical.com/rt/docs/4.0/ -------- Final RT training for 2012 in Atlanta, GA - October 23 & 24 http://bestpractical.com/training We're hiring! http://bestpractical.com/jobs
