I'm trying to add read/listing access to certain files on a Auth file Database, and I'm having trouble when filename (or path) contains an space character. I've tried enclosing the whole path with double quote ` " `, with single quotes ` ' `, and also replacing spaces with `"\ "`, but XRootD fails at initialize when having these paths... It seems there is no way to specify them. My XRootD config file: ``` oss.localroot /data xrootd.export / xrootd.seclib /usr/lib64/libXrdSec.so sec.protocol pwd -d:0 -a:0 -vc:1 ofs.authorize acc.authdb /etc/xrootd/Authfile acc.authrefresh 60 oss.defaults readonly ``` And example of a line in Authfile that causes this issue: ``` u anon "/100/path/New Folder" rl ``` or ``` u anon '/100/path/New Folder' rl ``` xrootd.log: ``` 210421 16:09:59 760032 acc_Config: Authorization system using configuration in /etc/xrootd/xrootd-default.cfg =====> acc.authdb /etc/xrootd/Authfile =====> acc.authrefresh 60 Config 2 authorization directives processed in /etc/xrootd/xrootd-default.cfg 210421 16:09:59 760032 acc_ConfigXeq: Missing template - "/100/path/New Config 2 auth entries processed in /etc/xrootd/Authfile ------ Authorization system initialization failed. ++++++ Checkpoint initialization started.
