RESULT: ACCESS WOULD BE DENIED        

REASON: KEY MODIFIED BY DIRECTORY

Release:
Component: ACF2MS

Resolution

With the TEST subcommand ACF2 queries rules for resources, first the complete resource name is looked for.  Then ACF2 will truncate to the high-level qualifier.  If that is done, and 'NO RULE APPLIES'  the the "Key" for the search was modified, and the reason is then "KEY MODIFIED BY DIRECTORY"
