Getting ACL Entry
*/
/* PUBLIC HTAA_getAclEntry()
** CONSULT THE ACCESS CONTROL LIST AND
** GIVE A LIST OF GROUPS (AND USERS)
** AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS A GIVEN FILE
** ON ENTRY:
** acl_file is an open ACL file.
** pathname is the absolute pathname of
** the file to be accessed.
** method is the method for which access is wanted.
**
** ALC FILE FORMAT:
**
** template : method, method, ... : group@addr, user, group, ...
**
** The last item is in fact in exactly the same format as
** group definition in group file, i.e. everything that
** follows the 'groupname:' part,
** e.g.
** user, group, user@address, group@address,
** (user,group,...)@(address, address, ...)
**
** ON EXIT:
** returns NULL, if there is no entry for the file in the ACL,
** or ACL doesn't exist.
** If there is, a GroupDef object containing the
** group and user names allowed to access the file
** is returned (this is automatically freed
** next time this function is called).
** IMPORTANT:
** Returns the first entry with matching template and
** method. This function should be called multiple times
** to process all the valid entries (until it returns NULL).
** This is because there can be multiple entries like:
**
** *.html : get,put : ari,timbl,robert
** *.html : get : jim,james,jonathan,jojo
**
** NOTE:
** The returned group definition may well contain references
** to groups defined in group file. Therefore these references
** must be resolved according to that rule file by function
** HTAA_resolveGroupReferences() (group file is read in by
** HTAA_readGroupFile()) and after that access authorization
** can be checked with function HTAA_userAndInetGroup().
