  according to this thread, back in April 2008, Jorn solved the problem of site-wide category-based permissions. It appears that a module should be able to implement:
  

  Code

  $permFilter = array();
          $permFilter[] = array('realm'            => 0,
                                'component_left'   => 'Categories',
                                'component_middle' => '',
                                'component_right'  => 'Category',
                                'instance_left'    => 'id',
                                'instance_middle'  => 'path',
                                'instance_right'   => 'ipath',
                                'level'            => ACCESS_OVERVIEW);

  
  and then DBUtil would take care of the rest. but alas, it appears to not be so
  
  when I implement that code and then put in a permissions rule like:
  

  Code

  Unregistered Categories::Category 510:/__SYSTEM__/Modules/PostCalendar/Events:/1/2/509/510 510:/__SYSTEM__/Modules/PostCalendar/Events:/1/2/509/510

  
  
  I just get errors all over:
  

  Code

  exit handler:Permission filter instance is invalid: [__PN_PERM_NO_SUCH_ITEM__], [__PN_PERM_NO_SUCH_ITEM__], [__PN_PERM_NO_SUCH_ITEM__]

  
  
  also - when I look at News or Pages, they implement callback-type permissions checks for Category information.
  
  Is this not the way it should be done?

  Well
  Jorn used another method to try to consider the Categories on the DB query, but I'm not sure if it works as expected. This needs a big rework and a central method to accomplish this, but it may be for 1.3
