well, I dug it up, and it's not really pretty, but it does prove it is
possible. the way I set it up to work was to read in the directory
structure prior to mount_portal taking it over and then use the file
perms in that for access control.

this was just an experiment.

a better way to do it is to have a separate configuration file for the
perms. so that you can edit those whilst mount_portal is still running.
I thought I'd had a go at that, but I don't see the code anywhere just
now so I'll assume it's not going to be easily found.
