Version Pre 1.7.0 Build 7152 -- Read/Write Permissions Single Group

[Palmertree]

If a user has read/write access to a single (one) hosts_group but does not have any read-only hosts_groups defined, they can not configure any host or items in the read/write hosts_group but can see the host in Monitoring and latestest data. But if a user has one read/write hosts_group and one read-only hosts group (can be empty without any host in the group defined, the user can add or configure items in the read/write hosts group as expected.

For example:

The following hosts_groups are defined:

Server_Hosts_Group_1
Host.ServerA
Host.ServerB

Server_Hosts_Group_2
Host.ServerC

User Joe has the following access defined:
Read/Write: Server_Hosts_Group_1
Read-Only: Nothing is defined, empty

User Joe can see servers Host.ServerA and Host.ServerB in Monitoring and latestdata but can not see them in configuration. Also the host_group does not show up in configuration.

Now if user Joe has the follwoing setup he can configure items and hosts in Server_Hosts_Group_1:
Read/Write: Server_Hosts_Group_1
Read-Only: Server_Hosts_Group_2

Please let me know if you need more details or a better explanation. I will try and see if I can find out what is going on by logging the mysql queries to see what queries are being issued to the database. Thanks in advance.

Correct me if I did something wrong, but I can not reproduce this problem:
