I noticed in the java.security.acl documentation, it said that "The =
classes and interfaces in this package have been superseded by classes =
in the java.security package." However, I was unable to find anything =
in java.security that handles the concept of access by a particular user =
instead of by a piece of code. I realize that the java.security.acl is =
no longer necessary for the security architecture of Java itself, but =
has it been replaced entirely with a new method of controlling access on =
a per user basis or is it still the recommended way of doing that? =
Thanks!

Daryl
