To control other users' access rights to your ecFlow server you can define a white list file.

The default name of the file is ecf.lists hence the server will by default look for  <host>.<port>.ecf.lists.


The ECFLOW white list file is a way of restricting the access to ecFlow to only known users.
The file lists users with full access and users with only read access.

Including a user name gives full read/write access, starting with '-' (dash/minus) gives read access only.

Note you must include a version number, e.g. 4.4.14 as the first non-comment line to allow for potential future updates to the format.
The environment variable ECF_LISTS is used to define the white list file name which should exist in the ECF_HOME folder of your server.
The white list file is an ASCII file.


Note
When creating a white list file (ecf.lists) be sure to include your user name with read/write privileges. Otherwise, you can be locked out of your own server.
