I posted the below to the owamp-users mailing list earlier today, and thought
I'd go ahead and post it here as well.  Note that this refers to a
configuration that allows only authenticated connections.

Hi Folks,

I'm trying to configure OWAMP to permit only authenticated connections,
but I'm not having any luck.  My conf file looks like this:

  limit root with \
                  disk=2g,\
                  bandwidth=900m, \
                  allow_open_mode=off

  limit jail with \
                  parent=root, \
                  bandwidth = 1, \
                  disk = 1, \
                  allow_open_mode=off

  assign default jail

  assign net ::/127 root
  assign net 127.0.0.1/32 root

  # authenticated users
  assign user ucsc root

but whenever I run owping ('owping -u ucsc mumble.ucsc.edu') against the 
system for user ucsc, owampd complains with:

  owampd[13941]: FILE=policy.c, LINE=2259, OWPDCheckControlPolicy: 
  No policy match for userid(ucsc) - using netmask match

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong in the above config?

thnx,
mb
