Ecflow black list file files( <host>.<port>.ecf.passwd) deals with authentication and white list files(<host>.<port>.ecf.lists) deals with authorisation.
ECFLOW 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. The read-only user names start with '-' (dash/minus). Note you must include a version number, e.g. 4.4.14 as the first non-comment line.
The environment variable ECF_LISTS is used to point to the white list file.
The white list file is an ASCII file.
